The post linked in the article, https://g.co/chrome/root-policy makes it clear: the goal is to provide a consistent, cross-platform experience to the Web.
Users, and developers, hate “it doesn’t work on my machine” bugs, which are incredibly common. Sites that work on Chrome on macOS 10, but not macOS 11, or work on Chrome on Windows 10 but not Chrome on Windows 7. Giving developers and site operators predictable guidance, so that it “works in Chrome, works in Firefox” is good, no different than what Web Platform features you can use as https://caniuse.com
Yes, Android is important, but it’s a bit like saying the forest exists because of this specific tree here, when in fact it’s made up of hundreds of trees, of all sorts of types.
