No, I don’t agree with you.

This is a basic audio playback widget on the web. The web is nominally an open platform. Whichever team built this decided to build it in a way that it would only support Google’s own web browser. It’s not unreasonable to expect a massive web company to build cross-browser support for their user-facing demos, especially in cases where there is obviously no reason that it needs to be incompatible.

Like I said, I appreciate that building cross-browser is not always possible. The difference between you and Google is that you aren’t one of the largest companies in the world, and you don’t publish your own browser.
