This is a very good "partial exit" for Mozilla, actually. The original plan might be to do something like this to split the cost, while oxidized Firefox still reaps more benefits than the competition playing catch-up.
Rust can't/shouldn't be directly monitized, so it makes sense to have something like this. Mozilla can still hire as many people as they want, but they never attempted to make it a company-managed project.
