yes, a web based app would have to contend with the same issue. So what's the advantage of shipping a packaged app that also have the same problem, when shipping it as an electron app would solve this directly and easily?

The packaged app can work with the local file system, and call additional native APIs that aren’t available in a browser context.

The main advantage is that the Tauri app runs its non-render contexts in Rust, on the metal, rather than in the javascript vm.
The secondary advantage is that you don't have to update and ship a new binary every time Chromium updates.
