Hell has truly frozen over. I guarantee that uninstalling edge will break something else in Windows
- It does.
  
  It breaks URLs/URIs in OneNote. Its fixable, so it's clearly the fault of the uninstaller.
  
  The reg key for the default html handler is wiped.
- It won't. System components / apps use the edge webview 2 runtime that is a separate component from the Edge browser itself.
