One thing to keep in mind is, on iOS all web browsers are required by Apple to use Safari's WebKit engine. They can't use their own on iOS (so Blink for Chrome/Edge/Opera/Vivaldi/etc. and Gecko/Quantum for Firefox). Essentially this means all web browsers on iOS are Safari skins.
What Jim and Hendrik means is the Edge-based WebView2 component which MC28 now uses is Windows only.

That says a lot about Apple. It's unfortunate.

We don't care why you don't like it; we care about full Video streaming services compatibility. Edge is the ONLY browser than can stream 4K Netflix in Windows. All the other browsers do 720p or 1080p.

Also Media Center 28 uses the Edge-based WebView2 component, not the actual Microsoft Edge browser.
P.S. In general it's worth mentioning that the Chromium-based Microsoft Edge web browser should use the same amount of resources, if not less than Google Chrome does. Microsoft has been working on improving Chromium's resource footprint so it should be equal to or less than Chrome's.

Google requires similar for Android so they followed Apple's lead there.
