You just compared a browser extension and an init system that takes proc id 1. The unix philosophy is about what runs as processes at the system level.

I’m honestly not sure what you’re talking about here. The unix philosophy is something informal that applies to compiled utilities that run usually in a bin/ directory. The philosophy isn’t attempting to apply to all software that exists and certainly doesn’t intend to apply to browsers or browser extensions.
