The funny thing about this comment is that if Firefox had the market share of Chrome, then it makes perfect sense. And as other comments have noted, there are several forks of Firefox, which is great. But the reality of 2020 is that Firefox might not exist in the near future because so few people actually use it. Splitting the user base further into a Mozilla-free version accomplishes almost nothing except helping ensure that that Chrome-only future comes to pass. If having Pocket and VPN features bundled with Firefox helps keep Firefox around for the long term, that's a concession I wish we were all willing to make.
