This mode of argument seems odd to me. Google is announcing a solution to the problems they were having with the platform. Wouldn't the criticism "Perhaps the browser is the wrong platform for document editing" only be appropriate if Google was complaining that they have been unable to fix the problems?

The fact that, while developing for a given platform, you can encounter problems and fix them, doesn't seem to imply that there's something wrong with your choice of platform.
