I agree, however there's more wisdom to that strategy if you're working with a novel technology stack like the SerenityOS browser. Chrome and Firefox are lucrative enough as targets that weaknesses are exploited in the wild rapidly enough that people are willing to make that bargain with internet leviathan on auto-updates. Something like LibreWolf has that same target painted on its back, but it's not the devil you know. On the other hand, SerenityOS is kind of like how back in 2003 when all the bad guys started targeting Windows users en masse, everyone switched to Linux, and then the whole virus issue went away. Not because the scrappy Linux developers were wiser and had better security practices than Windows, but rather it was just simple economics.
