FWIW this is how the web has ALWAYS evolved. Almost all APIs we use today we're shipped in the dominant engine prior to a standard being ratified (IE, Netscape, WebKit, now chromium). JavaScript language is a notable and impressive counter-example.

Irrelevance for whom? Maybe not being able to use the web as a tool, to compete with native platforms makes it irrelevant for Google, but Google doesn’t speaks for everyone. Without engine diversity the web is no longer open, and that is its largest appeal over native.

Relevance is hard to measure, but a main way I gage it is to ask a random sample of new tech businesses (especially in the markets with the most Internet usage like India): "tell me how important the web is for your business". Try it!

If the requirements to develop a competing browser engine is so high, that you have to be a massive tech company, or at least funded by one (which you could argue that both Gecko and WebKit are by the google search billions), then the web is pretty broken at its core.

Do you feel that the reason native APIs succeed is the speed at which they deliver suboptimal interfaces?
