  For some reason, I keep having to do that - it doesn't stick. And every version brings more unwanted toolbar buttons I need to remove. I'm seriously considering looking into building a version of Firefox with them patched out altogether.

  Rebutting a claim that the default options are poor by providing instructions to change those settings seems, at best, a non-sequitur.

  These need to be disabled by default, and the steps you list should be taken by people who want to enable them. If a masochistic user wants to navigate the labyrinth of dark patterns meant to confuse them into not understanding that the "Additional tools and features" category is also the "completely disabled features that run nothing in the background" category (why would anyone think that, ever?), then they can go ahead and do it. If these things are so great, then I'm sure users would be happy to put that extra work into enabling them. After all, it's 3 simple intuitive steps!

  Don't even need all that. Just, right-click the icon and click "Remove from Toolbar/Menu".
