Description

Why is `chromeosonly` option called exactly that? Why does its name contain the word "only"?

The current description of `chromeosonly` option is `"This flag specifies that the build will be used for Chrome OS only and prevents non-Chrome OS devices from installing the app"`.

I've just checked, and that is not true. I've built an APK with `chromeosonly` option and successfully installed it on my Android non-Chrome OS device. And it works!

Does adding the following string to `AndroidManifest` just marks the app as incompatible with non-Chrome OS devices only in Google Play Store?

```xml

```

If so, what about clarifying the description that we are talking about Google Play Store?
