A browser is the size of an operating system. If you can't stand up at least a ten person full-time dedicated security team, separate from all the actual dev work — or have a meaningful short-term path to doing so — you're not building a serious tool for non-hobbyists. Like, nothing wrong with hobbies, but I have more than enough expensive hobbies as it is. Maybe they'll get lucky and in fifteen years they'll have something useful with a big enough team to back it up, but I'm not betting on it. And to be clear, ten security engineers is a bare minimum even if you're working in a memory safe language with generated parsersfrom scratch.
