Why use MSFT-overlayed Chrome(aka Edge) at all instead of just using Chrome?

Edge will always lag Chrome for security matters and MSFT will just be yet another surveillance layer within it.

Just use Firefox folks. It's fast, secure-ish and leaves you only one threat actor to keep track of instead of two.

Blink is Chrome's engine. Blink is not Chrome. The Brave browser also uses Blink, for instance. Microsoft has been in the browser business for a long time and takes security updates seriously, to the point of force-updating people's machines which people gripe about.

Firefox is great yes, viva la resistance. Unfortunately I'm seeing more sites with quirks on Firefox so I tend to use both Firefox and Edge.

I primarily use firefox but I would choose edge over chrome simply because microsoft isn't completely depending on ad revenue.
