Sure, but I wasn't suggesting that Webkit is an original work of art - the discussion wasn't about the history of rendering engines and browsers - it was about which companies _today_ are willing to maintain their own rendering engines and browsers instead of just skinning Chromium.
- Apple has Safari which uses Webkit (which was forked from KHTML as you noted)
- Mozilla has Firefox which uses Gecko (originally from Netscape)
- Google has Chrome which uses Blink (forked from Webkit)
- Microsoft has Edge which uses Blink
- Opera has Opera which uses Blink
... The only two major players currently maintaining a non-Chromium and Blink based browser are Firefox (mentioned by the OP) and Apple (mentioned by myself).
I was simply trying to provide some additional context about the history of Chrome, perhaps I should've also included the context about the history of Safari.
