Back in the day it was the case with IE as well.

The cause?

At least in IE's case, deliberate siloing of non-standard features needed for table input.

Microsoft didn't have to write it that way, but they did, knowing it would capture a fucktonne of government and regulatory sites.

I had to support IE all the way to 2018 at one site because the only way they could pull permits was from an ancient government site that only supported IE.
