The entity making Edge is mostly Google. Edge is a shell on top of Chromium engine.
Chromium/Chrome team(s) is easily a few 100 million loss making, only profitable because of ads.
No one pays for the browser. It’s a loss leader.
So splitting them means things could get worse instead as the top browser engineers go elsewhere.
