Its… not an argument? Have you lost your mind? It was presented as an argument for why it would be bad to let users have freedom to choose their mobile browser. Of course an argument can be born out of a concern, that’s obvious. But you can’t just dismiss a rebuttal by saying an argument is not real it’s just a concern.
> I have a less optimistic take. At the moment, the only thing standing between the world and a Chrome-only monoculture is iOS Safari. Nobody in a suit can make a business case for not supporting iOS Safari, given its market share, and also given the fact that the entire C-Suite and senior management team at any given company are using Safari on their iPhone and iPad. A page not working on iOS Safari is a serious business problem that people will take seriously, today.
This doesn't sound like an argument against the change, only a pessimistic outlook for its effects.
Right, both things can be true. Apple has a closed web browser ecosystem, and that's bad for users. Opening up that ecosystem could possibly lead to even greater market dominance by Chrome, which would also be bad for users.
