I don't understand why don't all Electron apps do this instead. It's the worst of both worlds. Losing out on being remotely controllable AND having a duplicate copy of all the things that make up a web browser but without being able to share it with the instance you already have open.

I guess being able to style the titlebar is REALLY important to design departments.

I believe it is due to the widespread popularity of Electron. What is widely popular is not necessarily the most perfect, but it is more developer-friendly.

In recent years, developers and companies have become less concerned about the memory, storage, and CPU usage on users' devices.
