I had to use a whole bunch of plug-ins to get basic stuff on Safari, for me Chrome is about less plug-ins and Safari feels like the loaded down one.

Also, small stuff like Cloud sync of preferences, and generally using multiple ecosystems. Apple has never prioritized non-native platforms, and I use Windows and Android collectively more than OSX and I don't use iOS at all.

(I've been making phone calls with Gmail forever by the way)

It's nice to be able to actually send/receive calls from my actual number, though.

Can we just have Craig do the whole keynotes from now on? Bring Tim up for 5 minutes, give the state of the union and hand off to Craig.
