As usual, a thousand word essay on Google's WEI without ever mentioning that Apple sailed that ship silently a while ago, therefore not attracting any attention or backlash.

The sorry state of tech news / blogs. Regurgitating the same drama without ever looking at the greater picture.

The post states it. This is not a problem because Safari is not the leading web browser. Apple has very limited power over what they can do with it.

Exactly. Websites will not require this version because they know that Safari is a minority market share and they can't force users to buy an Apple product. However if this is supported by Chrome and Safari all of a sudden the equation flips and many sites will feel that they can reject service to other users.
