Plugins would be fine; you could always point out, that they are non-standard. Now, if you fail to support the right EME plugin, it is the browsers fault.

Back in the day a browser without those plugins was not viable. Non-standard didn't matter.

I know, but that's not the point. The point is, that the pain for the non-standard support had to be taken by the proponents of DRM. Now, it is up to the foss crowd.

IOW, it was not about tech issue, but about social issue / blame-shifting.
