What is ICNS?
ICNS is the macOS icon container - what sits inside an .app bundle. Since Lion it stores its images as ordinary PNGs at a handful of sizes, which is why reading one means picking the biggest member and writing one means rendering several.
What is WEBP?
WebP is Google's image format for the web, and the rare one that does both jobs: lossy compression that beats JPEG at the same quality, lossless compression that beats PNG, and an alpha channel either way. Every current browser reads it; older software often still does not.
