We don’t need diversity in browser engines anymore. Not that much. We’ve got Firefox, Blink, WebKit (Blink was forked off WebKit but is not WebKit. They also has different JavaScript engines. Chrome is called V8 and I think WebKit has one called SpiderMonkey). And we’ve also got Opera. Having less diffferences to code against is good. Yet there are still different browser engines from different comapanies. If Google did something stupid Apple could counteract them, etc. Thus I feel the author’s sentiment but don’t think this will matter at all from a practical perspective.
