WebP is for annoying people.
What is TIFF for?
Confusing them.
TGA might also work well for that. Also PBM outside of Unix space.
Tiff is for science. Like for actual values that need more than 0-255 level of precision.
For example we use Tiff (or GeoTiff because it has coordinates) for storing elevation, temperature, slope, etc variables of an area for processing. It can also have a lot of bands not just RGB.
For example, satellites record RGB, infrared 1, infrared 2, and many other bands and even if we can't see them it's useful to get that information for processing. That helps for example to recognize river from forest even if both look green to our eyes.
Faxes.
