Agreed. If it was for a search engine, it would make some sense, but the browser, WTF for?

    Because the lived experience of many users is the browser integrates with the search engine to give you predictive suggestions as you type, identify images, translate, etc.

    That's cool, the thing is that Mozilla does not have a search engine. What's the use for them? Benchmarking other engines? Knowing engine rankings?

    What you mention in your comment, they already do now.

    I don't think they make a ton of sense. Just that there is some rational for a browser executive to talk about search engines.

    Oh yeah, anything that can be potentially used to make more revenue will make sense to most C-suites.

    I'm just glad there are still alternatives, but the degradation of quality of life for Firefox users just keeps dropping, and that is really sad.
