Why did they force the use of Safari to sign into the app? What's the disrespect with the user's browser of choice (and one that already has the valid token)?

There is no code in Canva that specifically opens Safari, it would be a `ASWebAuthenticationSession` from macOS.

Safari is used by default, other browsers have to support this feature to use it and do not, so you just get Safari.
