From the TFA -

This is not for http://, https://, file:// links. This is specifically for microsoft-edge:// links, which I've never seen.

I think this applies only for Progressive Web Apps (PWAs).

I'm wondering how many of the commentators here have actual read the article.

No, microsoft-edge links are used through Windows itself when it wants to show a webpage, e.g. from Cortana or a desktop widget. They open in Edge even if you've told Windows you want a different default browser

Even still, these are links that you're rarely (if ever) using.

I didn’t read the article. Glad I scrolled down this far, my care for this is now 0.
