Maybe for "Apple", but there's one team that takes performance seriously. The WebKit team has a zero tolerance policy for performance regressions (https://webkit.org/performance/) dating back to the implementation of the Page Load Test in 2002 (Creative Selection, p. 93).
WebKit sounds like the kind of scrappy startup Apple might want to acquire and gain some hard-earned engineering knowledge.

But apparently they still welcome app-crashing bugs and UI-stalling code!
WebKit is the only browser that lags when there is too much logs in devtools console on my M1 mac... Pretty funny.
