My original idea _was_ to “use two separate map display libraries on the same
page” — we could switch out / instantiate the underlying map implementation
when the user switches map layers, and we could adjust front-end code that
interacts with the map instance so that it had implementations for both map
renderers.
However, looking at the code, that could easily turn out to be silly and/or
infeasible.
maplibre-gl-js is a much more “modern” javascript library than Leaflet is, and
has the potential to be much more performant at rendering, and provide a richer
feature set down the road. So, I do believe that moving to maplibre-gl-js for
all layers would be an improvement; however, that would be contingent on
@pnorman’s
[analysis](https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/2686#issuecomment-1226131786)
of whether a sufficient proportion of users’ browsers have webgl support.
