All the real browsers have been banned. Ask any browser vendor. The rest are basically Safari skins.

Again, users don’t really care about the plumbing.

Chrome went from WebKit to Blink.

Safari spiritually went from KHTML to WebKit.

IE went from Trident to EdgeHTML to Blink.

Opera went from Presto to Blink.

The identity of the browser is the chrome, ba dum tiss.

By your own definition Edge is different from Chrome because it reskinned Chrome. So, all browsers on iOS are different browsers for the same reason
