Archive-quality dump means that the resulting compressed dump, when reverted back to its original state, will be the same checksum as the official uncompressed release. Compressions that can't be reversed, or those that can be but will have missing or altered content, whether it interferes with functionality (rebuilt table of content) or not, are not archive quality dumps. For example, the WBFS format is not archive quality since it will may be missing padding content and upgrade partitions (which have their uses in 3DS/Wii modding) compared to an intact uncompressed dump.
