IE is abandoned, isn't it? Keep in mind that Microsoft bought Andreessens code from NCSA after Andreessen left to found Netscape, so Netscape was competing against a bad version of itself, made worse by Microsoft.

Edge is just a commercial IE alias. It's still IE, just like Firefox is still Firebird, a XUL based browser.
