It's not at the bottom, but within the content viewport. Browsers need a dedicated "safe space" for notifications and symbols like a lock for HTTPS. A floating address bar over the content of the website could easily be faked using HTML/CSS/JS and abused for phishing.
Sure, put it at the bottom, but not as a floating pill over the content.
