Mozilla was founded to protect open standards on the web against the threat posed by private actors. But, as people keep arguing, we should only be concerned about interference from the state.
Since the state is not threatening Brendan Eich's freedom of speech, there is no issue there; and since the state is not threatening open web standards, Mozilla's existence is completely unnecessary.
The obvious conclusion is that Mr. Eich saw that this was the case, and voluntarily chose to abandon the now-obsolete organization. Everything is as it should be.
