If you have a Rust enum with Color{Red,Green,Blue), if for some reason you update to Color{Red,Green,Blue,Yellow}, the rustc compiler will force you to manage the new Yellow case wherever you want to "match" a pattern on Color, so

Regarding 1, I think you should not obsess over it, maybe some other people were kept because they were less paid (That's usually quite an important metric during layoff..) not necessarily because they were better. It is also possible

What is "reference browser" in this context ? Is this the repo for Firefox Preview/fenix ? Or an upstream version of Firefox preview ?
