    If they do that, normies will start yelling that Firefox has removed their beloved features and will immediately download Chrome. I have a strong suspicion that a majority of people don’t use extensions at all.

      Did you miss this part of my previous comment?

      I think Firefox should ship by default with all the functionality it currently has, plus uBlock Origin and some other things.

        Okay. Replace core features as extensions. Kind of like the suckless philosophy.

        While it’s a good idea, I think extensions are purposefully made weaker, that is, they don’t/can’t have the same capabilities of core features. It will require a huge rework which I just don’t see happening.
