The product states it's compatible with a bunch of browsers; of course the devs use a mix. That's not interesting.

But like the requisite non-white person in every group photo, Microsoft's choice of browser screenshots most certainly is a conscious decision. For the same reasons. It's not to fake relevancy; it's to signal they're culturally aware.

You can say it's a conscious decision on a corporate branded product launch, like the surface. Not on some obsucure developer tool's page.
