This is the correct answer

I would sooner blame the management, that would even think of excluding "untested" or "unsupported" browsers, like some kind of technofacist dictator, instead of choosing a helpful "if you're having problems with our shit site, use chrome" message... or even literally doing nothing... everything is broken these days, and a half-functional site is better than an intentionally-broken one.

The tools and knowledge exist to make building standards compliant web applications just as easy, if not easier, than chrome-only web applications. It's not the responsibility of management to use those tools or acquire that knowledge.

Unless you're using some fancy WebGPU shit. I don't think we're talking about some fancy WebGPU shit.
