Are you sure about that one?

https://gitlab.com/gnuwget/wget2/-/wikis/GNU-vs.-non-GNU

However, Emacs already links against other non GNU libs, I am
not sure it is an argument. Curl can use gnutls if desired, but maybe
Emacs can get rid of gnutls dependency if using libcurl for the
network stack?

Libcurl is well known, tested and well documented (there are
even books about it); libwget seems like new as a library.
I don't know, I am not familiar with libwget, didn't know wget had
an API and a library; they didn't used to before. Maybe it is technically
better then libcurl, it can be worth investigation.

Whichever emacs devs would use I think it would be nice to have
a good networking stack accessible from elisp.

libwget from GNU Wget2 is a better alternative. It is a GNU
project and shares the libgnutls dependency with Emacs.
