No, in this case it's different. As I said, it's OK when you open your file in
a new shiny LO, add a new image from a web page, and save, and it doesn't show
in another's system - because the added image was a WebP. But it's a very
different case when I worked on this document for a long time, it opened on
another system just fine with all its images; now I upgraded, opened this
document to type "The end." on the last page, saved, and it "lost" all its
images in the middle, when viewed on another system, which were there before.
That is very much "data loss" from user PoV, who needs not to know that
internally, those images, that were working fine, were a time bomb "a showing
fallback + another format that will suddenly be the only one kept in some
future".

Note that IIUC, there's no plans to drop the fallbacks that we save for those
other formats that you refer; and that is the whole difference in this point.
