> This might seem like mere semantics about what "disliking" is

Yes it is. Because you have cherry-picked a single word out of my whole argument to make your point. I dedicated an entire paragraph describing the undesired consequences of going the PWA route and you refused to acknowledge it, claiming it's only the "UX" people are taking issues with.



My original comment was in response to a particular commenter who did in fact imply that UI conventions were the reason. I even asked a question to clarify if that was the case. Snarky it was, but still a question. You have your own reason to not want PWAs, that's fine. Your reason is not the reason I'm protesting.

Not including your reason in my question does not make it a false dichotomy. I never stated that UI conventions were the _only_ reason to dislike PWAs, it was simply the only reason the commenter implied.

If _you_ think promoting walled gardens and Apple's monopolistic power is less of a problem than expanding browsers' scope of functionality, I disagree, but that's not what I came here to argue about, that doesn't have anything to do with my original comment that you have an issue with.
