They just renamed it to Edge when they rebooted the UI. It's still a bundled browser, indeed the bundling is more aggressive than ever.

Edge is Chromium. Their competitor's engine.

It is now, but it initially did use Trident. I was on the IE team when Edge launched.

Does "Microsoft now bundles Google's browser engine" really scream "won the browser wars" to you?
Do you not think the settlement requiring APIs be opened up helped enable Chrome at all?
