The author seems to focused on the improvements to web apps, but ignoring potential improvements to native apps.
In particular, if Google were to support (1) Android apps running on Chrome for Windows and Mac; and (2) Android Instant Apps (coming soon [1]); then it would significantly swing the pendulum towards native apps.

It's obviously a developer tool, but showcases the technology: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/arc-welder/emfinbmielocnlhgmfkkmkngdoccbadn https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/arc-welder/emfinbm...
