I think this right here is core to the difference in approach. There is no point at which anyone gets to pick which businesses win or lose. We stick to the Priority of Constituencies and that's it.

The instant you move away from the Priority, you switch to a situation in which a private corporation is trying to run a public good as a planned economy. No matter where you sit on political spectra that's a pretty bad idea!

WebKit doesn't pick winners and losers, it picks users over authors/publishers over implementers. It's just doing what we've all agreed a user agent is supposed to do.
