Wrong. They did remove PWAs in safari. The old icons just become links with no special PWA features, and new ones can't be created.

Nothing in the article says that new PWA links can't be created in Safari. Read carefully:

> PWAs can’t be linked to alternative browsers.

If the situation that you think is happening were true, the article would simply say that Apple removed PWA links from iOS, instead of specifically saying that the removal applies to alternative (non-Safari) browsers on iOS.
