Accomplishing? Competition. As devs we don't necessarily want a single browser to be dominant even though we might jokingly pray for such a thing during testing phases. We just want them to be standards compliant, right? Don't get me wrong: there is a certain freeing joy when you work on a project where you know the target browser is the only one you need to think about (like say if you build kiosk apps or apps on a strict intranet). But at the same time, if one player is too dominant or we only have a single voice about "this is what a browser should be" we get the crap we have lately with Apple's voice being too strong on what is or is not accepted into the HTML standard; or when IE had the 90%+ share it used to have.
