It's the default.

It's the Google.

You use it because you've heard of it.

And none of the others have broken it.

Is that where we are now?

But then if you look at the products, the products, not only are the models all the same, the underlying model's the same, the product's all the same.

The rendering engine underneath might be different, just as the LLM might be different.
