The lack of of an alternative proposal jumped out at me as well. While it’s not explicitly required the post feels incomplete without it.
I think they’re also underselling WebKit a bit. Under Linux it's not too far behind macOS/iOS and work to bring the Windows version up to parity is underway[1].

- bagacrap 2y agoYou are overselling webkit. It's not at parity, and even if it were, just maintaining parity costs $$$ per year. Anyway, the obviously implied alternative proposal is: disallow search deals with major players like Safari, not minor players like Mozilla, or find some completely different way to address the search monopoly. The most obvious prior art is the browser choice dialog that was imposed on MS/windows. The DOJ doesn't want that because everyone would pick Google anyway.
