And YouTube. And Search. Hangouts, Gmail, Maps, Calendar, Groups, everything else? I don't buy it for a second that it isn't on purpose, even with the polyfill justification.

You only make it easier for people like me to continue ignoring Chrome (if I even needed more reasons).

I don’t think Google is trying to slow it down or does any work to hamper FF or Safari or IE.

I just don’t think they care. If it works, more or less, ship it.

Not lightning fast in Chrome? Put a couple of engineers on it.
