Even if Google takes Chrome proprietary in the future, Microsoft and others can continue on their forks. That's the beauty of open source in this case. As for SPDY, standards bodies like to "pave the cowpaths" so they codify existing implementations. Apple and Mozilla supported SPDY, it eventually became http/2 as you say, and then everyone dropped support for SPDY. This sounds like everything worked as intended.
