So the Safari developers are overworked/under-resourced, but Google somehow should have infinite resources to maintain things forever? Apple is a much bigger company than Google these days, so why shouldn't they also have these infinite resources? Oh, right, its because fundamentally they don't value their web browser as much as they should. But you give them a pass.

One is a browser. The other is an ad delivery platform which requires a more strategic active development posture.

The funny thing is that apple has a huge ad business so I don't know which browser you mean.

Google adds 1000+ new APIs to the web platform a year. They are expected to be supported nearly forever. They have no qualms adding those.
