what restrictions are you talking about?
chances are, those are restrictions Microsoft is demanding. (for example, child safety. or “child safety”, considering gates is a pedo.) It uses game files that are controled and licensed by Microsoft.
The browser on the other hand is an application that uses a standard, open, protocol to take information and turn it into a readable page with all the content you like to see.
It’s not the browser’s fault that pornhub uses the same protocol as, I dunno… whatever biblestory website evangelicals think is “safe”. (do Song of Solomon next!)
Regardless, Microshit owns Minecraft, and they get to decide what restrictions it has on it.

There is also ability for external filtering.
It is easy to buy additional software to restrict websites. That equipment doesn’t work for most video games.
