Well it would be more analogous to say "Just because Firefox on Mac does it".
Since Safari, Mac's native browser, does in fact have its close tab buttons on
the left.
Regardless we shouldn't do something just because Mozilla and or Mac OS X
do/don't do it. We should see what would be best for the users' overall
expectations.

Subject: Re: [Ayatana] Inconsistencies from LHS buttons
Just cause mac does it, doesn't mean its the best. Mac doesn't have the basic
idea of window management in the upper left and notifications in the upper
right, we do.

Tabbed Applications:
Firefox, gedit, Nautilus, etc. All these applications have their close buttons
on the right hand side of their respective tab.
Appearance Preferences:
The thumbnails do not correctly show the LHS buttons for Ambiance, Radiance and
Dust
GNOME Shell:
This may be something more for GNOME devs, but the window controls end up on
the right when using GNOME Shell, also closing windows from the Activities
Overlay also is in the upper right corner.
+1, +1 and +1
Taking into consideration that many of the interface ideas came from Mac,
here's the thing: Firefox on the Mac OS X also has close-tab controls on the
right side.
