There are surely multiple ways to describe similarities. The destinction between chrome and edge is not so hard to me, if seen in contrast between geometric and organic shapes. Firefox and even the mocks (since when do mockups even count, they are explorative for a reason) are way more on the organic side, while besides the last green slob, the edge logo is in strictly geometric territory. As I said there are similiarities, but then one should also bring up a mirrored Ubisoft logo, or various other Spiral/Nautilus inspired ones.

This is where I get with only a mirror and two identical rotations on different identical subgroups on the suprisingly complex chromium svg logo. (This is as far as I get in 5 minutes, but hope it conveys my interpretation). The tripartion of circular segments as most striking similiarity to me.
