“Act like apps” is far too nebulous and obscures what we are actually talking about. Let’s see what we can agree on. How about these two statements:
1. The only web apps that can possibly be affected at all by this change are ones that are installed to the home screen and used in that way.
2. It is not possible for web apps that are currently used in a browser to be affected by this change.
I don’t think you can disagree with these two statements can you? So how can you make the claim that Apple are going to break all web apps?
Or are you explicitly denying that a “web app” is something you can use in a web browser, and you define it only as something that must be installed to the home screen to work?

Untrue. Also affected are ones that /may/ be installed that way.
> 2. It is not possible for web apps that are currently used in a browser to be affected by this change.
Untrue. Such apps that /may/ be used outside browser are affected.
