At I/O 2024, "Chromecast built-in" was quietly rebranded to "Google Cast." Notably, this is reversing a branding change made in 2016...

Well, at least they aren’t outright throwing the functionality in the trash.

Pretty sure they can’t bundle it. AFAIK the libraries required for it ship with Chrome / Android and it’s not an open standard. The hacky weird workarounds are people brute forcing it.
