What if we got to easily choose our web browser, and didn’t have to rely on complex operating system settings to change the pre-installed default?

A few days ago at work i was very annoyed and confused at outlook suddenly opening links in edge. "We are opening links in edge so you can do everything in one window" or something. Wasn't hard to disable (though it was more than one click which already feels like too much for something actively ignoring my settings) but shows how they really are trying everything they can to get you to use edge.
