What’s the alternative here? I can’t imagine opening up a new computer and not having some kind of web browser pre-installed.

It takes about 2 minutes to download and install a browser. Most operating systems already expect an internet connection when you're installing them, it would be easy to add a screen saying "select which browser you want" as part of the process.
For slow connections, some of that space currently allocated to bloatware should be reassigned to browser choice.
