      Asking that we understand our values, rather than simply using them as a cudgel? I hope not.

      FWIW, I can make a strong case for engine diversity (ceteris paribus), but not one that trumps platform competitiveness. The mental exercises to demonstrate where you personally come down on this aren't hard to conjure.

      In plain language, Web competes with Native. Google has a native platform but with as little lock in as possible (no hardware, payments nor browser lock in). Apple has a native platform with complete hardware, revenue and browser lock-in. Which do you think wants Web to win? 1/2

      Not nefariously, but Apple has less incentive in the web winning, and underinvests in Safari. Now, imagine Google, trying desperately to get the Web to win, but gets beat up for it because it doesn't always wait for perfect consensus. Again, G err'd with aSS, but not much more.

      The problem with “wanting the web to win”, but not being willing to wait for consensus about what the web *should be* is that it turn the _open_ web into Google’s web. Which is just another way of destroying the web.

      This is a bit over-the-top wrt adoptedStyleSheets. Pulling the thread, they were discussed at TPAC in '16 & '17, iterated on in public w/ collaboration from developers, and only shipped in '19 after spec and tests were in place.https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/m/#!topic/blink-dev/gL2EVBzO5og/discussion …

      I hesitate to ask how much slower engines should go.

      You can improve the Web as a platform, and simultaneously mollify us engine diversity absolutists, by redirecting Chrome resources to move *faster* in the right areas --- namely, fixing interop issues, even just the issues that Google already agrees should be fixed.

          This site is better. Unfortunately Mozilla devs can tell you about many cases where they discovered that WPT tests matched what Chrome shipped but not the spec.

          WPT is great and I love that work, but it's no excuse for letting Hotlist-Interop bugs languish for years.
