No source code= black box you can't trust.

That is a disingenuous response. I have a program that uses open source libraries, but the program is closed.

Such a weird thing to post in reply.

It has a 'nuh uh' feeling, but doesn't actually refute the parent. However it seeds doubt in the parent argument without ever touching the parent argument.

All the bad things of Edge we're discussing here are not in the rendering engine, so who cares about that?
