It goes beyond things not working properly. Google regularly disables working features on competing browsers. Google search results for example display more information when you use Chrome. How much more intentional can it get?
All these large American companies are extremely anticompetitive. That’s been the case since the US stopped seriously enforcing its own laws on competition and will remain so until a regulator seriously slaps them. Europe is trying on the most egregious things but they are still not hitting hard enough.

I can’t see the difference with intentional ignorance/negligence and bad intentions.
You might be negligent and don’t water your plants when needed, but they will die at the end.
However it’s not your fault because you didn’t intend on killing them, right?

In the first case (negligence) you were saving water.
On the second case you were trying to kill the plants.

Oh, so I can neglect the things as I wish in the name of saving proverbial water, and be free of all consequences at the end?
That's great.
Maybe we should try that.

Please increase your level of flexible thinking so you can understand the comparison made.
Thank you.

Maybe I understood what you have said, but intentionally showed how it can be abused by thinking in a too flexible manner?
Maybe we both should increase our flexibility in different perspectives.
Thank you, too.

QA won't test on another browser or if it does its results are ignored? So they don't make it work badly on purpose, just by negligence.
Regarding to believe it's all accidents, I don't affirm it's on purpose as to not attract shills, paid or otherwise.
