Why do browser vendors have such a control over browsers? Can anyone make a dll injection and bring back manifest v2 ?

People can create the world, but they do need a lot of time. A lot of money buys you time, so nobody 'poor' can keep up. That wouldn't be a problem for web UAs, if the standards wouldn't be 'improved' at the same path as well. It's kinda like proof of work, but for standard bodies and ownership of a system.

They have control over what they distribute. Chromium and Firefox are both open source and people can (and should) use derivatives they find acceptable.
