Priorities like mentioning PDF editing before sickly doublespeak about...theming.

  Do people think it's one person implementing Theming, PDF editing, and Privacy Mode protects; and that he just needs to re-prioritize his backlog? Why can't developer of difference capabilities contribute in different ways? I'm a competent developer but I will never be kernel module, crypto, or netcode competent; does that mean I should just forgo contributing to anything?

    If it's implemented by volunteers then yeah let them work on whatever they want. If it's implemented by paid employees at Mozilla then it's up to them what devs they're hiring, and if they spend their finite budget on devs reimplementing theming then that's totally on them.

      They didn't reimplement anything. They're normal themes, just bundled with the browser and with a special chooser.

    I think that someone wrote the entire spiel about the life-changing aspects of changing some colours of a program without realising how plastic it sounds, when they could have written it to be read by real people, and have a grasp of perspective. Visuals and aesthetics do play an important role but people want their software to do its job: be a useful tool.
