You guys are diplomatic !
I think it is strictly sentimental value and perhaps better way of saying is, for backward compatibility.
Each time I wanted to compile cloop, I have to look out for patches for it. Kernel 2.6.35, .36, .37, .38. Every version there is something to tweak. Perhaps the Linux kernel is to blame, and perhaps squashfs kernel source also requires changes, but hey, someone has already modified it for me !
If one checks kernel 2.6.38, it has LZMA2 for SQUASHFS ( aka XZ compresion). This fella claims it compresses better than lzma :-

Cheers.
p/s: I am quite surprised about the time taken difference. Perhaps the mksquashfs was not done with lzma compression. But hey, without lzma it is already smaller than the '-b' of cloop ?
