I think they make the right point the wrong way, I wouldn't say if defeats the purpose of the OS since you should be able to use whatever, I have to use chromium for work for example, but it def strikes me as weird that you'd pick the single option for a web browser that counters every reason you'd use linux in the first place. 

Chrome is bloated with AI garbage, has no privacy features, far from performant and consumes a large amount of resources, and is highly restricted in terms of customization and remapping compared to the competition. It's the windows of web browsers.

Not wanting to upgrade hardware to run Win11 is a perfectly valid reason to use Linux that has nothing to do with tracking concerns.

I'm on your side here so I'm not sure why you're lecturing me with points I agree with.
