Yeah, it's possible WebP won't ever live up to its promise but we think adding it is still worthwhile as, at least as of late, it's becoming more widely adopted in browsers and we were also able to add more complete support in Pixelmator Pro (compared to the original Pixelmator). Of course, we're not forcing anyone to use it or even necessarily recommending everyone should switch to it right away.
That's more or less the plan, yes.

It's certainly possible that we'll add WebP to Export for Web in an upcoming update.The biggest (/only) thing is that Safari doesn't support it yet so we didn't feel entirely comfortable "recommending" it in Export for Web when the main browser that most of us use doesn't yet support it. Safari is also the #1 browser in terms of traffic to our site — not by a huge amount, but still, those kinds of things weigh into decisions like this. But we can certainly add WebP to Export for Web in the future, so we'll keep this in mind moving forward.
