<rant>
Well, it's not that needing webkit, it's that webkit installs ruby. I don't want ruby, nor do I really want prusaslicer to web browse, I just want it to slice!
</rant>
I'm done ranting.

I think you are wasting your breath here. Why not jump on the bandwagon:
"Remove webkit as a mandatory run/build-time dependency #12968"

https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/issues/12968
Also, it is open source software. You can always fork it and undo the changes that brought this on. They are here:
https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/commit/2276cedc107d3fd8cfc46d5f05cfe1d663b6b152

There is still hope for a resolution.

I agree. At least make an effort to chime in on that Github issue page.

Technically my printer was a Cura printer as that's what came inside the box. If I had a Prusa printer I'd probably have a say in this and Cura already had this crap embedded...
