Microsoft is building a Chromium browser to replace Edge on Windows 10

Nah, wrong comparison. Microsoft mostly stayed in their corner (Software) while the others (Google, Amazon) are branching out to everything else. Things like Waymo will probably even take over the revenue of pure digital services (though it's tied into). Transportation is a big business.

Better analog would be Wayland-Yutani I guess. The corporations that are manifesting currently are nothing that the world has ever seen before in size and interconnections.

Not that I'm against it, it's just my observation. I'm an avid customer of both.

Microsoft went into hardware, mobile, services, ISP, games and even TV (remember MSNBC?), before they stalled because of antitrust action.

The comparison is precise, Google is the MS of the new millennium.
