Over the last decade-plus web standards have become over-saturated to the priority of commercial interests.
To maintain a web browser to any kind of quality assurance and security you need a well funded team - or rely on one in your dependency tree.
Money rarely comes without strings attached and, on every page load, you can feel that tension between the pure philosophical vision and expected returns.
Perhaps the time has come to reassess what a web browser should be.
