Webm supports multiple audio and subtitle tracks inside its RIFF container structure, why the hell arent browsers supporting it???

I'll take complete video support over WebBluetooth, DRM, WebGL and other similar garbage.
Why is webgl garbage? You don't think 3d online games should be able to exist?
I never used one tbh. Last time I used something WebGL was when its tech demo was released.
Of course all of these have uses, that's why they exist. I just find these use cases very rare/exotic compared to viewing a video with subs.
The google maps globe view (and google earth) uses WebGL. I use that quite often.
