Nothing excites me more as a mobile user than having every website I use littered with push notifications and background processes that I need to dig through some Debug/Settings screen to discover.
Because web developers can absolutely be trusted to do the right thing.
If you're on about features? Ask Apple why they shy away from them on the web? Hard to justify imposing the 30% cut on a website/app.
Hell, Apple could have lead the charge on "web app privacy", implement the specs they've "missed" for web (notifications, background sync etc), and GATE THEM TO PWA/installed web apps, no more news sites asking to notify you when you just go to an article.
Heck, add keys to the web app manifest so as a developer I need an Apple Dev account and the holy $99 entry fee as well as my personal info in Apple's hands to make sites that do these things, so they have recourse to nuke the bad actors.
