I'm not sure where you got the idea that Thunderbird was sunset to keep resources for Firefox OS, but that's not the case. There's only one former TB dev that works on Firefox OS, and guess what, he's in charge of the email app. If you want to try Firefox OS, even with no carrier support, take a look at https://firefoxos.mozilla.community/devices/ https://firefoxos.mozilla.community/devices/ which lists supported devices.

From Mitchell Baker's blog post, it appears that it is Firefox that has diverging needs from Thunderbird. "Thunderbird and Firefox are interconnected in a few different ways. They are connected through our technical infrastructure. Both use Mozilla build and release systems. They’re connected through the sharing of some pieces of technology. The time has come when it is no longer effective for Thunderbird and Firefox to keep sharing the same technical infrastructure. Firefox and Thunderbird have diverging needs." https://blog.lizardwrangler.com/2015/12/03/thunderbird-update/ https://blog.lizardwrangler.com/2015/12/03/thunderbird-updat...
