Except if you actually read and understood the link, points #1, 4, 5 aren't a concern. Moreover, points #2, 3, and 6 apply to just about every piece of software used.
This is true for the user, too. If the only viable choices are 'verify claims at great cost and no gain every few months', or 'use some other privacy-respecting browser', I am going to recommend the second.
