That's not trivial for them. Adopting "crx" means they wouldn't have any say in the evoluion. The point of the web is for a browser to be able to take the lead with something like CRX and then work with the other browsers to standardise it.
Anyway, the permissions question is independent of the store mechanism. iOS apps ask for permissions on demand, Android apps don't.
My main point about no-install is simply that they're regular websites, not downloadable packaged apps. There's room for both, but right now there's no good mechanism to find regular websites with apps on them.
