You can add as much context and nuance as you want but at the end of the day the hardware usage is locked behind a door that Edge has the key to and Chrome doesn't.

Except that you are literally saying that Chrome/Firefox doesn't have the ability to stream HD when, in fact, they are. It's just the shitty antics of one of the sleaziest companies in existence.

They are on higher end machines, but they don't have the same capabilities of Edge on Windows. If it were Chromium on some other OS then they would probably be functionally equivalent.
