I can happily re-enable the privacy-destroying qualities of web browsing by using Chrome on iOS, thank you very much.

it's still crippled though. Try playing webm videos, like here https://www.base-n.de/webm/VP9%20Sample.html

They won't play because all browsers on iOS use webkit, and webkit doesn't support WebM. Whereas chrome and firefox on android both support it.

They aren't crippled any more than the native browser.
