As long as people continue spreading this information, it will continue to
exist. KDE is not a Desktop Environment, full stop, whatever you like or think.
Interesting to notice that one side you don't care about what upstream says
about Plasma and KDE, and on the other side you want to exactly follow what
upstream ships in some of the many products. Konqueror is not part of of the
releases of the desktop anyway.

My point is: even upstream does not really want to push for a browser or
another right now. There is a (maybe just prototype) of new browser
investigated, but really really an experiment. No one in KDE community will
complain if the default browser of a "KDE-based distribution" is not Konqueror.
