You have no idea whether that statement is true.

Cats wouldn't have made IE the bane of my existence for a dozen somewhat years, or driven Netscape or Be Inc out of existence.

And how does that relate to the world today?

Are you able to predict what the impact would be if, for example, Windows had not happened? Would the world be a Linux heaven? Would computers still be an expensive hobby? Would smartphones exist? Would you have a job?

You do not have the answers to any of those questions, please don't pretend.

You're taking a joke far more seriously than it should be taken.
