  - Independent set of extensions (independently configured) for each profile. - Independent set of settings/about:config parameters. You can't turn off, say, WebRTC completely for some profiles, while allowing it for other profiles. Different history. I remember accidentally nuking history of a few years - that wasn't fun. Now, you reduce blast radius. Proxy on/off or different proxies. Though, there's probably an extension that manages it on per-site basis. Different userChrome.css, if you fancy that.

I can't count the amount of times i have wiped or edited something by mistake and then restored it within seconds with it.
