There's plenty of great native desktop apps for video editing. And there have been for almost 30 years. I also don't understand why anyone would want to use a browser for this.

there is some friction even in downloading a new app

if our goal is to bring more people into the fold, minimizing the steps for them to start editing is something we want to optimize for

that being said, being on the browser presents its own set of challenges, many of which are rightfully mentioned in this thread
