The main purpose of PWAs is not to remove the browser toolbar but rather cache most of the website to improve speed and reduce data usage if I am not wrong, there are external tools to get rid of the toolbar but Firefox dropped the PWA spec which includes a lot more than just that.

The caching is the result of service workers which Firefox definitely supports.

edit: oh just scrolled down and saw you already commented that later.
