It's not a question of readiness or capability. It's an MBA with a spreadsheet explaining to a room full of people how much money Apple will lose if they allow X feature to work in Safari. This is user-negative behavior from a company that has so much money the best thing they can think of to do with it is to bank it offshore in a tax haven.

Conversly, there is an MBA at google saying how much money they can make for each extra piece of data they can extract off the user’s phone.

I agree an open web platform is good. But i also think some of the things added to the browser don’t belong in the browser. Face detection? i don’t need that.

I am much more partial to attempts to force apple to enable installing 3rd party apps than i am forcing them to bloat the browser with more ways for websites to monitize me.

You forgot to mention the long mustache your cartoon villain MBA is twisting while they sabotage Safari.

Crippling web apps is a user-positive behavior. It just so happens that user’s incentives and apple’s incentives are aligned.
