You've missed the point. Before once you made the platform choice the
language choice was made for you - now you can have the choice if you want
it.

You always had a choice of languages no matter what platform choice you
made. Java, C++, Basic, etc. Java and C++ are languages that have been
successfuly used to create lots of good solid software on various platforms.
There's nothing magical about Object Pascal. It is just a language.

In my case I am no longer as dependent on Delphi (a big plus with recent
events), but don't have to fall back on a C-heritage language.

Even if Delphi was skinned alive and was manned by a skeleton crew, it would
still have more resources devoted to it than Chrome. Your argument is
simply ridiculous.
