By Safari, I meant the engine, not the app.

Are there any people who actually prefer no PWAs at all over Safari-engine PWAs?

I think it's less a preference question and more whether Apple thinks saving PWAs with a third party browser and then launching them with Safari is compliant with the DMA.

Safari is the browser, Webkit is the engine.

Personally I don’t care about PWAs at alls. If you want an app, build an actual app.

Are you going to foot the bill for the development cost of building an actual app for a team that doesn't have iOS software dev expertise?

Thought so...

Then don’t offer an app. PWAs are worse than not having an app.
