Just because a common open source engine has been decided upon doesn’t mean there’s no competition or that no innovation can happen.

No, it doesn't. But with Microsoft, Google and Amazon all relying on Chromium, there's going to be massive pull in that direction no matter what. Together, these three companies will now, basically, control the desktop OS market, the browser market and the cloud market. I'm not exactly giddy with excitement about that.

No, this is incorrect. It’s open source.

It’s like saying that because Microsoft Amazon and Google all use Linux - that we’ll have no innovation.
