I wonder why now? And what is the point?

Are Safari and at least Edge planning to support WebP at all? If not, it sounds like a failed attempt as a image format for the web. Perhaps they thought implementing might put WebP on their radars?

Edge already supports it. With this announcement, Safari is now the only major browser that doesn't.
