Why browsers are bloated

Let's reinvent the fucking scrollbar, which every goddamn platform with a UI already has, and make it behave subtly different from the native one!

Right-click a native scrollbar in some other app:
- Scroll Here
- Top
- Bottom
- Page Up
- Page Down
- Scroll Up
- Scroll Down

Right-click a scrollbar in Chrome:
- Back
- Forward
- Reload
- Save As...
...

Right-click a scrollbar in Firefox and Opera:
Absolutely fucking nothing happens!

What the fuck!? How did these terminally retarded idiots get involved in creating one of the most important pieces of software to the average user?

Even with good coding practices, mistakes will slip through from time to time. It's easy to say, "Don't shoot yourself in the foot" but it's better to just not point the gun there in the first place. You're always going to have to try to reproduce issues that appear in a production build on a debug build anyway, if the two are distinct - if they're not, it's just one less thing you need to worry about.
