Mostly the lack of options, and the way the updates don't get in your way. Firefox gives you a lot more power, but everything you can do in it beyond the basics gives you the possibility of things going wrong. So you can install Tabmix Plus, but that gives you a wall of tab options that can leave you wondering how to find things. You can install NoScript, and be left wondering why half of your web pages don't work any more. When it comes to "plain Firefox with nothing installed" and "plain Chrome, with nothing installed" I suspect they're about as easy to use.
