>Some of the recent threats to the ability to implement competitive browsers are non-technical

I believe the biggest threats remain technical.

It's too challenging or expensive to implement a competitive browser engine from scratch.

Add to that the challenge and expense of building a Search Engine or Smart Assistant (significant features integrated today's browsers) it's nearly impossible for all but a few companies to even try to enter the market.
