Bureaucracies always do such a shit job with tech. A complete failure to understand the nuance.

I'm not a fan of capitalism generally, but it does have it's virtues - foremost is figuring out whether a project is economically viable. If an indian browser could be successful then it would already be a thing. A competition isn't going to change the long term viability of a project like this.
