The point of incognito was never to hide that fact from the sites you're visiting. The point was to not leave a trace on the machine you're doing it from. Basically, it's for porn, not news.

Yeah, it's weird to do this strategic about turn on it. It feels very much like the personal grievance of someone on the Chrome team rather than a thought through feature.
