Yes, so true. Concerning that a Google Chrome engineer does not know this.

Safari users will mention, especially mobile Safari. And while they are not all that impressive in percentage, they account for the very large share of the money in play, quite comparable with Chrome.

If something works for both Chrome and Safari then yeah, everyone else is either taken along for a ride, or just left in the dust.
