Comment (by eatingrules):

 Replying to [comment:14 markhowellsmead]:
 > enforcing WebP by default on sites which use a lot of photography will
 often cause longer image loading times.

 This is just one of many reasons why this feature should not be in core.

 There is strong, legitimate opposition to this proposal being shared in

 announcement blog post comments]  - I won't repeat them here, but I hope
 everyone will click over to see that discussion.
