>I think it's a good statement. But I also recognize a dangerous dystopian world with only one render implementation. The competition between Trident/Gecko/Webkit/Presto pushed the web forward, not a single one of them — the whole process has done it.

And it's not like Gecko added anything significant.
All of them mostly copied Webkit's innovations (canvas, css transformations, a strong push to pass the ACID3 test, JITed javascript engine, etc).
