As far as I've seen, testing has shown that WebP is not dramatically better than JPEG, as long as you're using a clever encoder (like MozJPEG, which is what we're talking about). If you have evidence to the contrary, I'm sure the MozJPEG guys would appreciate a test-case!

Instead of spending energy on dubious WebP, Mozilla spends energy on improving JPEG (which benefits everybody now) and Daala (which will hopefully benefit everybody eventually). I think it's a pretty sensible trade-off.
