Eh? Firefox supports Manifest V3 as well. I don't find anything naive about it. Firefox supporting Chrome extensions can only help Firefox.
Nope, what benefits Firefox is when something is working on Firefox.
As an example, I use Revolut and most importantly the one-time virtual cards by Revolut. They have a nice Chrome addon that lets you fill the card details. Otherwise I have to get my phone, open the app, authorize with PIN, check the card details, authorize with PIN again, rewrite the card details and check that I didn't make a mistake. If the Chrome addon worked in Firefox, it would make my life significantly easier. Sure, the ideal scenario is Revolut supporting Firefox themselves but for whatever reasons they don't want to.
We agree on the ideal scenario, we disagree on what's a good enough solution, so my previous comment is quite literally disagreement with what you said.
