I seem to recall a federal lawsuit about this kind of behavior with Internet Explorer. Does changing the name of the browser magically nullify the original legal settlement?
The difference is IE was the dominant web browser. Despite having a terrible user experience it had the vast majority of the market share due to being the bundled web browser.
Microsoft is absolutely abusing windows market share to push edge, but it hasn’t worked (yet) so they’re not getting in trouble for it.

there’s an ie mode in edge
There’s also still ie mode extensions for chrome-based browsers last I checked.
There was nothing that came of that because they were let off the hook with a slap on the wrist when Republicans took over the government.
The fact they have 4% marketshare also protects them.
