Honestly, it's not just Android. iOS exhibits the same issue, and of-course Safari is exempt from this policy.
When you're in Edge, switch apps, and go back, the amount of times Edge RELOADs the page is staggering. And of-course, reload means re-fetch from the server which isn't necessarily idempotent.

And given Apple's control over the ecosystem it's quite weird that tombstoning (what it was called on Windows Phone) isn't enforced, even though it's one of the most jarring experiences of using 'apps'.
And frankly, that would cover 99% of all battery life issues. The only reason these apps want to stay alive is to maintain state. State that can perfectly be serialized & restored.
