webp is better than jpeg, png or any other file format
But the best image format to download is the original one it was uploaded in, without the recompression of server-side conversion to a lossy webp which we're seeing all over the place.
Even if it wasn't, you could just convert it to .jpg if you felt strongly about it. Not as though there's a compatibility issue.
The complaint people are having is with resizing/manipulation after download. They want these enormous uncompressed files floating around on every website, in the off chance they plan to download it and manipulate it. 99.9% of the web needs to be full of megabyte sized image files for the 0.1% y'all want to play with.
