If it's easy for users to just install the extension, then obviously there's no point in Google doing this in the first place. The fact that they bothered sounds like a pretty compelling argument for it being worth caring about.

Worth caring about why?? Because you think Google shouldn’t be allowed to make things better for their users? Like I said, you are so concerned about fairness you’re missing the point.

  • Worth caring about because they have a browser monopoly. It's not allowed for the exact same reason why in the olden days Microsoft wasn't allowed to add APIs to Windows that could only be used by IE, even if it made things better for IE users. It harmed users in the overall market by making it harder to compete.
