I don't think it's too weird. So many apps today are just Chromium wrappers. It's just easier to use a premade base, plus you don't have to develop the web and desktop version independently, they can literally be the same code.

While that's fairly typical and good practice in dev circles, we're talking about a company that's single handedly elevated an entire OS to prevent a big company taking too much power. I think the key here is they don't really compete with Google.
