I'll never understand why people feel so strongly about features like this and that they have to be opt-in.

I don't use bookmarks. Should those be opt-in? What about the other 85% of the browser's features I don't use?

The bookmarks feature doesn't silently connect to their servers in the background to function.

The supposed local-only features like translations will download at least model updates and configuration, which leaks metadata.

You can choose not to use bookmarks, remove the bar reserved for it, and it’s taking up kilobytes in the background. Can’t say the same about shoving an LLM in a browser.

But sure, I’m much closer to the extreme of “make bookmarks a plug-in” than “make everything a default”.
