how very convenient, looks like politics outweigh any benchmarking

I have no game in the matter, but as a large website provider perspective, handling millions of images and processing thousands per day, I am glad not to have to deal with yet another format that would double our cache costs and force eternal support on the web. Not everybody has infinite google money to afford any kind of image format existing on the planet, and google can get only so much leeway after poisoning the web with webp.
