Every once in a while, I come upon a web browser for Android that has interesting and appealing features, usually to do with UI.

But then I find out that it's not a proper Chromium browser, as it first appears, but rather it uses WebView. Which makes a lot of sites load with really broken/hard to use page formatting.

And each and every time I struggle to understand why Android WebView, although it's clearly based on the same Chrome/Chromium everything, is so bad at being consistent at this one thing, and it keeps rendering some things insanely different from even a bare bones Chromium.
