I hope not because if so his academic colleagues would suspect
his competence.

As the references in the web page attest, the information is not really
lost but can be inferred from the stored quantization tables:

"Our algorithm is based on an adapted total variation minimization approach
constrained by the knowledge of the input intervals the unquantized cosine
coefficients belong to. In this way, we reconstruct an image having the same
quantized coefficients than the original one, but which is minimal in term
of the total variation."

If Shannon is laughing it's at someone else.  Perhaps you?

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!
