The name isn't going, but we also are replacing much more than just edgehtml. The new version of edge shares very little code with the old version of edge

Is there any reason Microsoft isn't open sourcing EdgeHTML?
i've heard it's strongly coupled to windows' underlying rendering.

also, probably lack of value to microsoft.

It was probably based on IE which was and maybe still is used to render help pages on windows and probably other things.
