Mozilla will not let you publish an extension that they disagree with politically.

  > i can't just install a program _i wrote myself_ on a _device i own_ without having to get it signed You're moving the goalposts. But, because of the fact that you can run unsigned extensions on nightly builds, there is nothing stopping you from distributing your unsigned extension through github or bittorrent or anything else.

    No, you moved the goalposts. The original person you replied to said "Same with a Firefox extension." not a "nightly or developer build of Firefox extension". If you can't get an extension on a regular build of Firefox, you might as well not be able to do it because for most users installing nightly or dev is a big problem.
