The article isn't accurate. One could say they're uninformed, one could say maybe they're ignorant, but it's not reality.
This is a security feature a Workspace customer can choose to enable or not. If the workspace customer wants to use Firefox they're free to not enable this security feature that isn't supported by Firefox.
It's not a requirement at all to use Workspace, it's an optional feature. You can still use Firefox or any other browser for that matter with Workspace, if the manager of that Workspace wants you to. Which it's the company's software suite, they should be able to configure it how they wish shouldn't they?
If Google actually started banning all non-Chrome browsers maybe I'd agree that's harmful to the browser market. It was a bad thing when they blocked Windows Phone from accessing Google services back in the day, for example.
