Converting FROM a format to a DIFFERENT FORMAT can cause loss. In this case from one compressed type to another.
Or the output is a comic strip about a miscarriage.

This is the most compressed meme
You are saying that you use an extension to convert from WebP to PNG, right? PNG is a lossless file format. It’s compressed, but losslessly. Like zip is also lossless compression. You can remove information to make it more compressible and then it’s a lossy process, but that’s not because of PNG, but because of the specific workflow.
Not true.
