I mean you can, but firefox doesn't treat you any better. We waited 2+ months to get a minor update through review, and getting it through that quickly took emailing several folks (including one from HN). During that whole process they also removed the display of your queue position, making it even more opaque.
At some point they disliked something in our extension that had been live for months, and disabled every release in the past year. At another point they found something wanting in a 2 year old release (not a recent one) and threatened to remove it from the store, our attempts to continue that conversation or just allow it to be pulled to save everyone some time met with crickets.
