It's good that you are advocating for render engine competition. But I think you think you are getting off tangent.

It has nothing to do with the point that trying to make your code work in multiple browsers/rendering engines is painful.

Wanting a project to work with multiple rendering engines just because is an idealogical decision.

All software is political, so ideology is relevant.
The political ideology in play for the majority of software development is capitalism so we loop back to "if i can't get it done asap using this tool, i'm not going to use this tool"
Externalities matter even in capitalism.
