It sounds like you didn't read the blog post: https://kofi.sexy/blog/multi

The problem this solves is that web apps don't have (1) cmd-tab icons or (2) decent notifications. And it does that without using "cross-platform tools" or "electron". That's why it's cool.

The web is a cross-platform tool. It's fine for what it is, but it can't provide an experience that feels native, or runs nearly as fast as native.
PWA is coming.
It sounds like you didn't read my post. My complaint was that its lazy developing to just take your web app and put it on the desktop. I was not commenting on the merits of this tool.
I would suggest tempering your comments with the merits of this tool rather than immediately jumping to calling them lazy.
