Until it gets overridden by an update. Not to mention most users won't click though the popups telling users Edge is better
Having had win11 installed for approximately a year, my default browser (Firefox) has never been changed by an update.
Count yourself lucky then. I run Windows 11 in several VMs and unless you spend a bunch of time turning off all the popups its unusable. You still can't get rid of Edge in the start menu (it always opens edge when you mistype) and Edge always says "recommended"
On top of that Edge always has a ton of things to click though before you can close it.
