I love PPK's new writing style.
Most of the comments so far seem to be arguing a few specific details; I think that misses the point. PPK is arguing (in an over-the-top way, which makes it more fun to read) that convergence sooner rather than later is a good thing. For some of the more clearly defined properties (like border-radius), the time is NOW.
His characterization of the goals of browser developers seems to be right on as well. It will probably change again over time, as most competitions do, but today the top competitive advantages seem to be performance, stability and standards compliance. So, the mindset from the last generation of competition (differentiation) is no longer appropriate.
