Any browser plugin is inferior to using a hosts file.

This is objectively false. A hosts file blocklist cannot:

- Global blacklist and whitelist select URLs

- Block all sub-domains of a given URL

- Block third-party iframes and scripts (with whitelist)

A hosts file's feature set is not a superset of a browser based solution and the two complement each other.
