On what basis can "notably most secure browser" be asserted?

I think both aspects of this statement are definitely not clear - certainly not notably (reference?), and comparisons based on some searching seem to go one of numerous ways.

I would be happy to see a security expert's view on this though.

See also this link on Chrome devs essentially telling users that upgrading their kernel from 3.16 (not even > 7 months old at the time): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9164251. Thankfully better sense prevailed and it was resolved fast. So even in terms of OS support it is not unambiguously better than others.
