 to maintain that.

 Not true — while it is non-obvious, you can hook into pre_http_request,
 when an HTTP request is triggered by `WP_oEmbed->_fetch_with_format()`.
 You can also filter it using the oembed_result filter and re-issue a
 fetch() with your own URL. Or you can do a global filter for
 wp_embed_defaults().

 I proposed the possibility of more obvious/discrete filters in #16996.
