Fair, your comment makes more sense when I reread it through that lenses.
I remember the "cut" step I would do in a lot of designs when I got a PSD from a designer. I'd go through the file looking for all the things (assets) I needed and export the PNGs for use. Nowadays I get a Figma and I rarely have to grab anything directly from the figma except for SVGs (and of course looking at things like font-size, border-radius, etc).
I compared the versions of Safari I had to support in 2017/2018 to the versions of IE I had to support in 2017/2018 (11) for that specific contract. There is definitely no contest when it comes to the older versions.
I find it interesting that folks assume I was comparing to Chrome - I have used Firefox as a daily driver for nearly two decades now. That's what everything got tested in first, and yes - even Chrome had a number of stupid flex bugs at that point in time.

I hope you didn't forget that HTC file to make transparency work...or you'll have nice grey backgrounds on your rounded corners!
