What a wonderful word, "respond". Not answer. Respond. That's exactly what you're doing: responding

HN: This is not "finalised"

Respond: oh yes, it is finalised. Because browsers [sic! plural] conform to the living standard

HN: It's not implemented or supported by browsers (plural).

Respond: Oh, it doesn't matter, all that matters is that Chrome implemented it

(Aside: for something to be considered standard and finalised there should be at least two independent implementations. See history of why WebSQL on top of Sqlite never happened)

HN: Others view this standard as harmful

Respond: why are you attacking me personally

> who can express their thoughts without resorting to personal attacks.

To me you are just another in a long list of Chrome's talking heads who all behave absolutely identically (and their behaviour is very well documented across various internet platforms): ignore, deflect, gaslight. What you see is simply a reaction to this. To your credit you haven't stooped down to gaslighting.

Want to see a different approach? Change your (as in Chrome team's) behaviour. That is, however, unlikely: Chrome stands nothing to lose by ignoring any and all concerns about its behaviour.
