I think Apple was the first to jump on this bandwagon. The others are following along.

What if Apple took your argument to the extreme and remove the URL bar, back button and the tabs bar so you can focus on the website? Would you be OK with that?

I agree, at least with the phone, there's limited screen. There's NO reason why the scrollbar should be invisible for the desktop though.

Most non tech users never change the defaults on their phones/laptops. This means for those users, the scrollbar is effectively removed (other than scrolling).

But are the people who are buying the big SUVs in an arms race against Semis/Big Pick ups? Everybody knows their cars can't compete in size compared to Semis/Big pick ups. I believe their arm races are against other consumers who are driving big SUVs. They're looking to have the biggest SUVs on regular roads (outside the highway).

I agree but I think consumers will jump to electric cars instead now that they're an option.

But does this include pedestrians and bikers who are killed by vehicles?

What happens when people see the high cost of gas and switch to big electric cars instead?

You break the arms race by limiting the size.
