Comment (by svenwordpress):

 Sorry if I got it wrong. Think the difference is between this 2 points:

 1. Support of webp
 2. Using webp as default image format

 Support should be a clear yes!
 Default format should be a no or better there should be a switch in
 settings if yes or no.

 On a settings page it is easy to check if the hosting provider support
 everything which is needed(like GD / Imagick or other thigs) and display a
 red / green icon. If it is green the option to switch to webp as the
 default format should be available. If the icon is red it means that the
 server doesn't support everything which is needed and therefore this
 option is grayed out.
