I would not be surprised if the exact demands towards the regulation was unclear and lawyers included PWAs just to be sure. Removing them so publicly might have been a way to get the regulators to say “we don’t consider PWAs as part of the browser” or “we give you a longer deadline”.

I’m also curious to see if PWAs being tied to WebKit will stand the test of time.
