"... to pander to the inability of browser vendors to comply

I question if "inability" is the correct description. With some browser vendors IMO a more accurate term would be "refusal". They can but do not for their own reasons. Their attitude, to paraphrase a famous movie line, is "W3C Specifications? Our Browsers don't need to obey/conform-to no Stinking W3C Specifications".
