While that is the origin story of Playwright in 2020, that's no longer really true. Puppeteer is alive and well and arguably moving faster than Playwright these days because it's updated in lockstep with https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/devtools-frontend
Also recently found it unnecessarily difficult to do profiling of page workers using Playwright's CDPSession wrapper (and they don't seem to have any plans to improve it: https://github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/22992#issueco...), whereas it was pretty painless in Puppeteer.
So, definitely more useful if you care about more than just your main thread.
