Since when did Hasselblad camera generates JPG file format?

It probably costs almost nothing to add it, and there's situations where using less than 200MB per photo would come in handy.
 
that's my pt. exactly. They should have done this 10 yr. ago. Proprietary format is never popular. Some website is doing a comparison btwn. their model vs. the Canon. The Hasselblad is solely for still photography of say a person, I can't even take photo of my pet w/o them moving every few sec. So 3 frame/s is useless. You would think their micro controller can accommodate more than 3 frame/sec
 
Since always?

Every camera company has a proprietary RAW format. If we’re to compare RAW vs jpeg amongst professionals, then “proprietary RAW” (as a whole) is much more “popular” than jpeg.

Pick the right tool for the job. If your focus is animal portraiture then this isn’t the right tool.

I don't think you understand what the word "proprietary" means in the context of technology.

If we were to use your working definition, then Adobe wouldn't support Hasselblad files in either Lightroom or Photoshop. You'd be limited to using Phocus.

Even smaller image editing software support files from Hasselblad. Here is Serif's, the maker of Affinity Photo's support list:

X2D isn't supported yet, but presumably will be in the future. X1D II is supported as an example as is their full sized medium format backs such as the H6D-100c.

More to the point, if you're an Apple user, then they create all the necessary frameworks for acceleration to use all of these RAW file types at the OS level. And software manufacturers simply have to use Apple's framework to gain access to being able to read RAW files. Here is Apple's current list:

RAW support generally comes pretty quickly. This is pretty useful as even small companies that make software like Darkroom can use this framework and immediately support all of these cameras and RAW types.
