I agree. I don’t think they see Safari as competing with the App Store. Even with the recent PWA additions it doesn’t seem to matter. At this point I’d say Safari is 100% a hedge against being fully dependent on Google/Chrome. It started to not be dependent on MS/IE and improve what MS didn’t care a ton about. Apple HATES being fully dependent on others for very important stuff. They’ve been burned too many times. Safari is great. I love it. But there’s no way it is ever going away even if they are forced to preload 18 different app stores and 4 browsers on every phone by the different governments of the world. It’s Apple keeping control of Apple’s destiny.
