Seems like time killed the adoption of Dart into Chrome.

The chrome team had "been wanting to fix Webkit for a very long time, and the Blink fork made that possible"

Moving Blink from ref counting to a traced GC was part of that fix, it also was required to be completed to allow the Dart VM to be added to chrome. What was supposed to take months took years and with no end in sight the Dart team announced that its VM would not ship with chrome.
