No one is going to avoid implementing it - even if it were technically feasible.
Imagine a browser that couldn't be used for YouTube, Gmail, Facebook, et cetera.
Brave is a bit of a wild-card I guess. Their model is basically non-viable with this change. They're fucked either way.
Agree with your overall argument, examples used can be personally irrelevant tho.
They're not irrelevant.
You, personally, may not use those websites, but of course you realise that you're a small minority. Browsers find it hard enough to earn market share as it is, reducing their available market by 99.9% is going to make them non-viable.
So while you might not use those sites they're very relevant to a browser's choice of whether to support WEI.
yeah I know
