Your version of trying is just shouting at the same group of 2000 people nonstop. Everyone here is already onboard or isn't going to.
I highly doubt everyone is just going to go "oh damn, Brave/Vivaldi/Firefox stopped working, guess I just HAVE to download chrome now."
Like you realize monopoly and antitrust lawsuits are a thing, right? If the ONLY option is Chrome via WEI there will be a lawsuit about fifteen minutes behind it.
It won't be the only option, it'll just be the only practical option because some sites will only support WEI. I see any antitrust case being rejected on those grounds, and on the grounds of other browsers choosing not to support WEI.
