Fetch is supported in 10.1 (only 2 years after Firefox and Chromium!)

They also already have Custom Elements v1 support, which is still in progress in Firefox.

Timing and SRI they announced in this release (11).

Service Workers is THE big gap, at this point it feels like they're actually very afraid of progressive web apps.

Wasn't the original idea for the iPhone to just use web apps in place of native?

That was the only way to add apps on iPhone OS 1.0, yes. Maybe they already had the App Store in mind and intended that as a stopgap, maybe the App Store was a reaction to jailbreaks and unofficial app development…
