>Google chose to fork Webkit to create Blink

Wasn't this because the amount of work required to co-operate with the WebKit project made it not worth it for Google?

I find it more likely that Apple and Google's views on key topics (e.g. privacy/advertising) were diametrically opposed (not to mention Android vs iOS).

Note: Chrome exists for many OSs - Safari is only found on Apple ones.
