According to that logic, using any open-source component is outsourcing development. Doesn't make sense.

This isn't the case when you use a small open source codebase. But it is the case here when Opera is using an enormous codebase by a huge corporation, and just innovating in the UI and other modular features on top of the huge core.
False. Opera has said they will contribute to both WebKit and Chromium.

WebKit is not Google's codebase.
