This is why browsers really need to focus more on letting web pages be applications. On mobile, you can "add to home screen" for a web page and that's expected behavior. That needs to be forefront on the desktop as well.
I have over half a dozen SSB applications using Epichrome on the Mac, but that requires a level of technical expertise (finding and downloading a third-party program, finding icons to use, knowing that this capability exists in the first place, and so on) that you can't expect from average computer users. (Epichrome is great btw.)
