From my understanding, it allows a website to check if you’re running a Chromium browser, and block your access to the site or to features of the site if you aren’t

god that'll make it impossible to do a bunch of frontend work for anything but their browser. which is another reason they want to do it, i'm sure

They deprecated it as in it always is set to the same value regardless of the chrome version.
