You could have put Google in early ‘00s on this pedestal. But the Google today is not worthy of this.

G is like any other Fortune 500 company now. The amount of products in their graveyard grows every year. Maintenance of “legacy” apps is handed off to offshore teams who have objectives to just keep it running until it’s 86’d.

Google has also made plenty of mistakes with web: look at PWAs, AMP, and Chrome just to start.
