Might be just my personal impression, but I'm pretty sure Chrome is extremely notorious for abusing its market leader position, including in this way. So gonna have to disagree there, from my view people do mind Chrome and its implementation particularities quite a lot.

I think the parent is equally denigrating the situation.

Leaders choose the standards, especially as they approach monopoly.

Worse still: people will come out of the woodwork to actively defend the monopolist de facto standard producer.

Not defending the producer, just making pragmatic choices!

Pragmatic choices is what Postel is known for now, and it makes for a pretty confused world when everyone makes different pragmatic choices.
