Nah, they went with the route of least resistence. Gotta remember, they're dealing with thousands of students (college aged kids now just don't use computers the same way and don't want to learn how to, at large) and faculty (people who may be doing this job for decades and refuse to learn computers beyond the minimal requirement).
This reminds me of years ago when I was trying to get my grandma off of Internet Explorer.
The only thing that worked in the end was adding a shortcut to the desktop and changing its icon to IE's. For a lot of younger people, or older folk who resisted computers until the 2010s, Chrome is the internet, the same way my grandma thought IE was the internet.
