And a comparison between CRAM and openzl on a sam/bam file. Is openzl indexable, where you can just extract and decompress the data you need from a file if you know where it is?

Not today. However, we are considering this as we are continuing to evolve the frame format, and it is likely we will add this feature in the future.
