Isn't this... what everyone (that uses in-app browsers) does? I just assumed that's a big reason why one would use in-app over sending a person to their native environment, which is decidedly a better browsing experience.

I think that in times when user just quickly checks some website the better UX is to stay in the app, so there would be legitimate use cases.

e.g. Apollo by iamthatis here on hn does this and I very much doubt he is doing it for tracking reasons.
