It's just another google scam to track users using images. What a low-life company. Google is trying to be one of those giant companies that dictates every aspects of our live, just like those movies, like in Lorax (off the top of my head).
Clamp to 8 bits per component: convert input.png -depth 8 output.png

Jpeg is superior in terms of image quality. Is that quality needed for web page browsing? No.Then you can adjust the JPEG quality during compression in such a way, you'll get picture smaller by 40% - and you're not required to implement another format. Google's problem solved.
WebP is losing more details of picture than the JPEG and it even doesn't support 4:2:2 and 4:4:4 chroma subsamplings of JPEG or alpha transparency mask of PNG
