contents We prove conservativity results for weak Kőnig's lemma that extend the celebrated result of Harrington (for $Π^1_1$-statements) and are somewhat orthogonal to the extension by Simpson, Tanaka and Yamazaki (for statements of the form $\forall X\exists!Yψ$ with arithmetical $ψ$). In particular, we show that $\mathsf{WKL}_0$ is conservative over $\mathsf{RCA}_0$ for well-ordering principles. We also show that compactness (which characterizes weak Kőnig's lemma) is dispensable for certain results about continuous functions with isolated singularities.
