I think it's fair to say that Safari is no longer late. That comes with 3 caveats.

1. Safari isn't updated independently of the OS, so users who don't update or whose iPhones don't get updates anymore will be forever stuck on old Safari versions.

2. Being timely on new features does little to alleviate the pain that comes from all the old messiness.

3. Different priorities driven by economic incentives of protecting their 30% cut. Fair enough. But shutting out alternative web engines on iOS is definitely a dick move.
