That's exactly what I was thinking. It also makes Chrome essentially worthless to anyone except Google.

Maybe as a whole package, but node.js servers are ubiquitous and have a ton of stakeholders that have nothing to do with web browsers.

What does Chrome have to do with a node.js server?

Same JS engine, same maintainers, same iron-grip control by Google.

I've got no idea what you're talking about here.

The JavaScript (code) engine that powers Chrome is the same JavaScript (code) engine that powers Node servers. Node is used to power a large portion of web applications and internal corporate tools. The Chromium/Node project is under the tight control of Google engineers.
