I'll admit, in several places I used Edge as an effort to have at least some layer of distrust between myself and Google. I'll have to quit that though.

I like your style. I went looking and found "switchbar" which kinda/sorta eases this bouncing between browsers idea:

It's not elegant, but it supports the workflow you suggest. I kind of like the idea of using Edge for google.com and Chrome for microsoft.com. I'm not optimizing my experience (it may in fact be very sub-optimal), but I'm also using competition to neutralize potential shenanigans.
