I dunno, then there would only be 2 actively maintained browser engines, Chrome and Firefox.

Webkit is doing pretty good on https://wpt.fyi/interop-2022 so I'm not sure why Safari should be retired.

The problem is a mountain of older ipads and iphones and ipods that aren't eligible for the latest major ios upgrades, and thus get stuck with an outdated safari/wkwebview/webkit implementation. This is only going to get worse as the EOL'd ipads these days are quite powerful and usable otherwise. And due to Apple policies banning bring-your-own-html-engine, firefox or chrome can't save them either :(

Most of my Safari compat issues are on older iOS devices that don't get Safari upgrades, for better or worse those devices do last a long time and a lot of people resist upgrading Mac software.

At least it definitely shouldn't be the only available browser. So we could say that the Safari monopoly should be gone
