Back when Internet Explorer was still a thing you could configure it with group policies domain wide. If Microsoft implemented similar features for Edge in an active directory environment I can definitely see the appeal. Not to say similar isn’t possible with Chrome or Firefox, but first party integrations in a corporate environment tends to be the path of least resistance.
Firefox does support GPO amongst other policy mgmt solutions, and so do Chrome and Edge. But yeah it’s easier to only support Edge, apply policies recommended by the company which also supplies the OS and productivity suite, and call it a day.
