This is not true. Microsoft is participating in standards and implementing them in Blink.

I didn't know Microsoft contributed to chromium, although that makes some sense.

But my thoughts remain. Chromium IS NOT Microsofts browser.

Chromiums opinion might matter, which might include contributers from the open source community, which might then include some Microsoft engineers.

But Microsoft, as a whole, does not develop a browser so they don't have a seat. The seats are Firefox, Safari, and Chromium/Chrome/Blink.
