I suspect that would change if Edge gained significant market share. I think what happens is that as these platforms grow, they get targetted by spammers, malware, and scammers and consequently their processes harden and tolerances go down.

Since the extensions are identical to Chrome, they should piggyback on that store’s decisions. Or both should. That might ease some pressure and benefit everyone.
