No, that's not my point.

My point is that there's no such thing as PWA. There's a lose collection of standards, and everyone choses a set that benefits their narrative when defining PWAs.

For a very long time Apple supported all APIs (except maybe notifications) that even Google defined as necessary for something to be a PWA. Didn't stop people from pretending that this is somehow not PWA.

As Android shows, even there no one wants that, and there are very few PWAs of note.

The main reason/value I find for a pwa over a normal bookmark is the isolation of data, and the way most browsers hide the address bar and toolbar. The actual service worker etc logic...could pretty much take it or leave it.
