As I understood it, the main problem was that the mozilla browser is
open-source except for the mozilla icon/logo, which is copyright, and
not under a free license. And the firefox name is trademarked, and they
won't let you use the name without the icon. So Debian had to rebrand,
which mozilla had no problem with.
Debian *could* have used the firefox binary direct from Mozilla, but
they compile everything from source, as it's the only way or them to be
really sure that the executable matches the source code.

Thanks Hendrik.
How about Devuan? Is it going to follow Debian?
Kind regards,
Anto
