Thanks, I removed the reference to WEBM in that case. MP4 and MKV are very common container formats, so being supported in WEBM, MP4, MKV doesn't seem like a differentiator.

With how versatile the MKV container is, it seems odd that it isn't the de facto container out there.

Not to mention WebM is (was?) literally a subset of Matroska.

Afaik WebM is just a royalty-free subset of MKV, maybe with some exotic features omitted.
