I mean I see your point, but you cold also argue that anything that can weaken a monopoly is a good thing, in the grand scheme of things

Who’s monopoly are we talking about? If that’s the goal then Firefox + DuckDuckGo would be more sensible right?

100% but Microsoft and Google splitting 50 - 50 would be better than the current Google 90 - 9.9 - 0.1 it currently is.

Of course it would be more sensible, but that was not the point
