    Why wouldn’t it be my browser asking for the codecs it prefers instead of the website trying to guess my computer’s hardware ?

      Lots of hardware lies about its useful capabilities.

      Can you run 4k? Of course. But can you run more than 4 frames a second?

        The browser can lie all they want, at the end of the day the user has the final word if they want to change things.
