It seems like one more way Google is throwing the web under the bus. Just like how Angular 2 is all about having a "native app" front end.
I really feel marginalized by the Android ecosystem treating me as if my life was meaningless because I haven't mortgaged my first, second and thirdborn sons and daughters to Verizon. If you think it is bad sucking the web down through a straw through Verizon's "best effort" wireless netwpork, you are not in the 90% of the land area of the US where there is no Sprint, T-Mobile or AT&T and we have to suck the internet through a landline straw from some third world phone company like Frontier. (Meanwhile, Google can't manage to make a Nexus device where the WiFi works correctly... I guess Mom bought the cheap chips)
Maybe 1 out of 10 native apps has a real advantage over web apps, mostly they are just poorly written -- "Download our free mobile (cr)app" is to the 2010's what "I'm from the government and I'm here to help you" was to the 1980's.
Of course all of us red state people are supposed to relocate to places where phone companies want to offer service so maybe we can all move to San Francisco and join the homeless bums who will drag you all down. (Maybe when we elect Don Trump we will learn from Russia and China and institute the firing squad for corporate crime...)
