I think you're overestimating the degree to which the majority of users are willing to inconvenience themselves over a browser. If Microsoft announced tomorrow that Windows no longer supported any browser other than edge you wouldn't see a mass migration to Linux. Instead you would see a healthy uptick in complaints about edge.

    Maybe not mass migration, but that alone would probably add another percentage point or so to Linux's market share, while others would just set about breaking the limitation/working around it within probably hours.
