Let us think about the defaults in our life:

Windows: Most use Chrome (Google default), the rest use Edge (Bing default).

MacOS: Safari (Google default) and Chrome (Google default)

Android: Chrome (Google default)

iOS: Safari (Google default)

So it looks like the only vulnerability here would be iOS and then possibly PC/MacOS if enough users switch their browser.

you should also consider that Google is/was the best search engine around so it makes sense as a default, sure they pay to be the default and most people never change defaults. But if you are making a phone you might just really actually care about people having a good experience with your phone.

(and its not like Microsoft couldn't pay them either anyway)
