You can "do this until the cows go home", but that's about as valuable as repeating "why" every time someone answers a question.

People generally value being able to do more stuff. Putting control into the hands of large central parties generally does not go well.

Because you’re not answering the questions.

You’re providing tautological responses.

You’ve been asked specific things about what features are missing from Safari / WebKit. You’ve replied with vague generalizations that don’t hold to be true outside of the echo chamber of the Chrome Reality Distortion Field.

Then why are you are in favor of a Chrome monopoly (the obvious externality here)?
