lol. What other browser vendors? Whatwg is just google is a trench coat. Edge is chrome. Firefox is funded by Google. So I guess apple who's main contribution is being years behind and having half their stuff be broken
There's this really cool site where you can see how well supported a feature is: https://caniuse.com/?search=if
If Google controls everything, why is if() only supported on 59% traffic? Do you think any serious company will let their site break on 40% of clients? Do you think Apple's opinion is unimportant?
Did you look at detailed usage stats? More specifically at things that do not count towards that 59%: older versions of Chrome add another 20%, various Chromium forks add a few percent more, so the rest of the internet accounts for less than 20%. I'd say this is pretty monopolistic for one company to control the means of more than 80% of traffic of doing its 'trafficking'.
If you've ever ran a serious website you'd know most of those Chrome uses are poor third worlders that aren't worth much as users.
