On the contrary, the webp push didn't really hurt anything... there were (IIRC) no major exploits related to it, and it sees some use. I wouldn't say it was a mistake.

But it was a tremendous amount of effort and promotion on Google's end for a relatively narrow format.

I would seriously disagree. Plenty of CMSes switched all their photos to webp resulting in a huge loss in quality.
