Steps to reproduce
If the data attribute of an object element is dynamically updated, the new content isn’t displayed.
Here’s a simple example that reproduces the problem on Edge 38.14393.0.0, EdgeHTML 14.14393:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script data-require="jquery@*" data-semver="3.0.0" src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.0.0/jquery.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#pdfObj').prop('data', 'http://www.pdf995.com/samples/pdf.pdf');
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<h1>PDF viewer</h1>
<object id="pdfObj" data="" type="application/pdf" width="500px" height="500px">
<p>This browser doesn't support object</p>
</object>
</body>
</html>
The Plunkr properly displays the PDF file on Chrome and FF, but on Edge the object element stays blank.

Thanks for your feedback. We have
triaged this issue and given other work in this area this wouldn’t make the bug
bar for coming release. I have marked your feedback for further consideration
and we hope to get back to it in one of the future releases. -
There are any news about this bug? Can you re-considering the fixing?
Thank You!

I doubt they will be fixing it. I opened a new bug report (12148261) to get the issue fixed, and after being confirmed and passed around a few times, it was deleted.
Wish Micro$oft was as interested in good software as they were in data mining…

Please reconsider this for fixing. Developers can’t stand forcing users to use a different browser.
Thanks!!!
