Chrome for Android has "learned" this lesson too. And you can tell when launching a link with Chrome set as the default browser.
The Chrome UI (Chrome) will load instantly and then it will sit there idly and do nothing and be irresponsive for a few seconds before it wakes up and starts loading the page.
Actually Chrome is pretty slow, but it is deceptively attempting to give the impression that it is fast.
It's gotten on my nerves to the point that I have replaced it with Firefox beta as my new default browser.
I general I oppose tricks like this. They are annoying and counter-intuitive. Most users will probably wonder why the UI which is present on screen is irresponsive, etc. Having a loading-screen or showing that you are not ready is much better than lying.
