Not just non-safari browsers.

From TFA:

> PWAs can’t be linked to alternative browsers. Apple simply doesn’t allow it anymore at the operating system or launcher level. Users in the EU are forced to open them in Safari, if they want to open them at all.

Read it more carefully. PWAs are no longer supported, even in safari. Any old PWAs that were already in the launcher just become web links. They happen to open in safari, but they are not PWAs, and no new such links can be created.

This is just a way to not delete the old links from the user's launcher until they have had time to create new bookmarks in the browser of their choice.

If you are going to argue the this somehow advantages Safari, you aren't being serious.
