Pretty sure ffmpeg is just black magic at this point.

But can it convert animated webp’s back into the gifs they’re based off of anyway? That’s what makes me really hate the webp standard. If I save an animated image as webp no video converter will touch it that I’ve found. I just want my gifs and mp4s back :(

You can convert it to frames with imagemagick, then use ffmpeg to turn that into a gif:

magick animated.webp frames.png
ffmpeg -i frames-%d.png animated.gif

EDIT, or with a single imagemagick command:
convert -format gif file.webp file.gif
