From my understanding, it allows a website to check if you’re running a Chromium browser, and block your access to the site or to features of the site if you aren’t
It's not about whether it's a chromium browser or not. It's about whether a browser is "trusted" and installed from a "trusted" source, like the windows store... Basically gatekeeping. Still, Firefox and any browser could still be approved.
What's more trusted than source code?
According to Google - probably source code that can't block ads and that is known to not block trackers... basically.
