Why this is obvious extension workflow and vertical tabs or FF Sync aren't?
How do you propose they finance development if we consider simple integrations with zero privacy or customization impact "selling out"?

They would need to finance a lot less development if they stopped changing things and just worked on maintaining a limited core functionality including a nice extension system. That's it. Most of their "development" over the last 10 years has been a total waste of time.
Can you really say with a straight face, that not doing vertical tabs or chat shortcut would allow them to operate on much smaller budget?
Either way, all I'm saying is when I look at the UI changes that have been made to Firefox over a period of years, I believe their value to me is closer to zero than their development cost is.
