Agree. Plus OP may be severely underestimating the complexity and expense related to developing a new fully featured browser. JavaScript engine, CSS rendering engine, supports for dozens of additional add-ons like WebGL, sandboxing, WASM etc. Microsoft is a case study on this given their attempt and eventually ended up forking off Chromium.
Pouring more resources into existing projects seem more realistic.

I'm just done with the drama and shite that keeps occurring over the piss battle of Chrome and Firefox. The internet is just a waste land and all those technologies you posted I have not seen one decent product come from them. Please feel to prove me wrong. All of those technologies could be implemented in a better application away from the browser instead of throwing them in a "all-in-one" solution which ends up falling behind because some other new tech comes a long. It's your attitude which causes the internet to lack in the first place.
