Why of course. To assert dominance! and maintain influence.

It's not about "the old parts",it's more like google's elitist engineers do a stats count and notice only 0.1% kf users use a feature so why spend time maintaining it. Awww,they'll get over it. So what if 0.1% of billions is a million people,not like chrome makes money anyway. What will people do? Boycott google products over ftp support?

Please support google product alternatives. This is how AT&T and Comcast became the way they are. A long slippery slope of not really caring about x% of users.
