It absolutely is relevant.. but only in about 6 months :)
Suppose the obvious case, i have some resizing pipeline for images. Would i include support today in my resizing pipeline today and pay a few extra cycles and storage for someone that my clients can't read?
It would be cool to have a subscribed alert for when the tech crosses a certain % threshold adoption so i can look at it again, otherwise it just relies on my brain's flawed long term cron job

Yes, this is literally what the <picture> element is for.
Your hypothetical pipeline would be able to convert <img> elements into <picture> elements with multiple <source> elements for different user resolutions and format supports.
