I don't think so. WebM doesn't need new content type and it can ship AV1 and VP9 all the same.

What are you talking about? Video formats have a whole mad type parameter for this stuff https://jakearchibald.com/2022/html-codecs-parameter-for-av1...

  • It's not mandatory, and it would work without using it. The whole point is for forward compatibility support effect for sites which are very slow introducing these kind of changes.
