In short, Chrome can spy on us more than Chromium, but it is better supported. If the big search engine company believes that there is something that will bring them income, they will implement it, even if it is something as controversial as a "super cookie" that will spy on us more and better, with the excuse that it will protect us from cookies. For example, synchronization is better in Chrome (in fact, they even removed it in Chromium), and new codecs may be available sooner in Google's browser.

Some features may arrive sooner in Chrome, and Chromium may have some things “layered”. Google treats its browser better, in which it adds all the changes that it thinks will benefit you. Both are developed by Google, but there are very different points.
