This is incompetence, not malice. YT devs would skip testing on Chrome if they could get away with it, but are forced to.

Incompetence at scale is malice. We're talking about a mega-corporation gobbling up some of the brightest minds of our generation, not some garage startup that is barely able to keep the lights on.

I'll agree with some of the brightest minds, but some Googlers I worked with were mediocre at best.

Also, I don't really understand what your catchy phrase means. Google's management is being malicious by not forcing their employees to not be lazy?
