Many steps to open file page in real web browser
In the following series of screenshots, you will see, from first picking "view file page", to the final step where we really are in the browser (black background), it takes very many steps. The blue background browser is not the browser: we're still in the app!
Yes, every time we were given the list, we choose Chrome Canary.
By the way, there is no setting, to say that we really really really really want to open the file directly in the browser, the real browser.

I think having a toggle in the settings which let users set their preference to whether open it in-app browser or the phone's default browser is a better option.
The problem is opening it in Chrome will still get hijacked, as you see in the first and second interactions. It takes about three interactions before we finally "shake off the hijackers."
