A fact about an opinion is still a fact, and the opinion that Google were dragging the project along is real. That removing features instead of enabling them may bolster that opinion seems indisputable. You may disagree with that opinion, or simply not care about it, which is fine, but the rest of my argument was not predicated on it. It was on the use cases that make this feature important, the nuances that have lead to occasional developer hostility, the support from other browser vendors, the support from the W3C, and the likely cost of taking over maintenance now vs reviving it after it has rotted away in version history for however long. If I'm wrong about any of that, or wrong that Google's departure reduces the project's engineering strength, then I'm happy to hear about it.
