What do you mean, Google of all companies... It's a company that makes 90% of its money from ads and all of its products are made with the express purpose of enabling them to spy on you or creating technical dependencies so you can't quit their services.
Plus they've already tried to lock the web into proprietary formats (AMP, PWA etc.) and have maneuvered so they have 90% of the browser market and the smartphone market but can't be actioned for it.
Since when was PWA proprietary?
