Falkon relies on Qt for QtWebEngine, not Plasma. Which has its maintenance issues of its own (look it up, it's a chore nobody really likes doing and is therefore infrequent, something you don't want for a web engine).

Falkon, on many platforms, links Qt statically, so you stil rely on them making timely releases.

It is absolutely not a browser anybody should use.

GNOME Web has next to no UI over WebKit, so the claim is easily verified.
