Funnily enough, JPEG2000-support was eventually removed everywhere. I assume the only reason this didn't happen with WebP as well is Google pushing and keeping it in Chrome.

Also the Google's lighthouse benchmark pushing webp recommendations, and people listening to it because of SEO concerns

True. I mentioned JPEG2000 because it had a similar fate, in particular no real reason to use it in the first place.
