The area under these lines is a measurement of lost potential because Apple prevents real browser choice on iOS. An integral of fail; a decade of suck.

@owa Not for nothing, but Apple have also starved Mozilla of the revenue it needed, while siphoning off profits each of the last five years that would have funded Firefox for a decade. Obscene doesn't begin to cover it:

Some folks claim that Apple's mandated inadequacy for browsers and their engines is somehow beneficial to the cause of ensuring a diverse pool of web engines. Nothing could be farther from the truth, but to understand why, we need to understand how browsers are funded. With that understanding, we can see that not only has Apple has starved its own browser team of resources, but has done grevious damage to Mozilla along the way.
