CHIPS is a new way that cookies can work. The difference is that 3rd party cookies are opt-in for the browser, not opt-out, which is better

That makes sense and sounds better.

They worded it as "support for blocking third-party cookies" which sounds like reframing the system that was already in place as something new, rather than something actually new.
