But Chrome should be the only (inevitable) option?
Smartphones with ”Google Inside(tm)” should be (effectively) the only option?
As a consumer I care quite a lot about not requiring Google inside my phone, or on my desktop. The tendrils they have in sites are quite enough already, I don’t need them on both server and client…
Knowing Android gets me Google, I chose a device that couldn’t be consumed by the borg, and spoke with my money on that. And as a result, my bank, my airline, my social media, all have to support more than one browser engine if they want affluent customer share.
I have zero trust in this developer community clamoring for an open web simply so they stop having to test in any browser other than the one they install for dev.
This site^H^H^H^H app requires Chrome.

More likely the goal for users is to prevent is a set of activity, e.g. Chrome is doing, via policy and actively promote choice/competition. This is exactly how things are being legislated in Europe and is a better option than supporting just 2 inevitable options depending on the device the user owns.
