Microsoft is working on this with their cross-OS Chromium based Edge - so far on Mac I see about a 60% reduction in RAM footprint using Edge. I believe the end goal is a single managed chromium runtime so each electron app wouldn’t need their own full Chromium instance.

I have spent hours searching the web for any clues as to Microsoft's intentions here. I would be grateful for any words on how you came to believe this.

He said "I believe", it's not an official statement from Microsoft, it's just his own opinion.

Isn’t that pushed into the app developers to maintain compatibility in other ecosystems?
