I think the person you are responding to would say that edge is just another chromium skin. It doesn't exactly relieve Google's monopoly on browser technology

It should fairly simple for MS to block this API (if they wish to).

depends how the api is designed. If it'll be integrated deep into chromium, disabling it would cost too much time

I don't think so. Even if it's impossible to exclude it from the builds, they can just remove it from the JavaScript global scope or something.

But Googles makes way more, will make compete with Google even harder in the future (deeper pockets).

another chromium skin with extra tracking. I believe Edge tracks by hardware ID more aggressively than Chrome or chromium.
