WavPack supports 32-bit floating point WAV file compression, which is
the native format of Ardour. FLAC doesn't support 32-bit floating
point WAV file compression.
The history of SoX is that it supports conversion between just about
anything and anything else. Leaving out X because it already
supports Y seems counter to this.
