Do you simply not see how an old largely unused browser might

never walked along and seen a weeping MacIE5 or WinIE5?

I hear there are some lonely orphaned border sides looking for
a browser to call home.

Well, any port in a storm, I suppose. But the truth is, there is
nothing like close family. A browser is second best as far as
detached borders are concerned. They long for direct
rectangularity. I am not making this stuff up, I actually
questioned a few in a little halfway house I set up, made it all
square like and so on... but the view was that while grateful for
my efforts (described as "well intentioned"), there was an
irreducible sadness...
