I guess this is the Dunning-Kruger effect everyone talks about!

To understand just enough to regurgitate what happened, but miss why it happened... and then assume someone who's pointing at the much more relevant why is just plain wrong.

Because the why requires actually understanding of things like developer mindshare rather than regurgitating search results.

The hint I'll leave if you're willing to consider maybe you don't know everything ever... look at who's feedback is being promoted when Chrome wants to do obviously unpopular things on the web: https://github.com/webmachinelearning/prompt-api/blob/main/R...

https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/1213

And model for yourself what happens if developer interest exceeds vendor refusal in magnitude, so Google just ships the thing, without a feature flag, to a massive percentage of the web-going world.

Keep trying, though, if you believe hard enough you might rewrite history.
