I signed up to discuss enterprise Firefox issues with other IT professionals in 
the same situation, not entertain pompous and denigrating responses from 
weekend enthusiasts.

I don't have the original email regarding Mozilla Cert Store but that is not 
surprising.  This list serv really sucks as only maybe 1/3 of messages are 
received.  When it started out with the first Enterprise version of Fx the list 
serv was excellent but it has really deteriorated since then.  Yet I am still 
using Thunderbird but missing so MANY messages.

Anyhow, I FAR PREFER Mozilla's cert store.  It is up to date always. 
Microsoft's cert store is a nightmare on Windows 8.0 Pro.  I can't update it 
from the original when I bought this machine in Nov 2012.  I can't understand 
why you would prefer something from the corrupt Microsoft that most of us want 
dead as soon as possible.  I know many knowledgeable Windows users who also 
cannot update their Microsoft cert store.  These are IT professionals.  
Microsoft is a disaster these days caring only about spying on its users.  It 
is not a reliable, trust worthy company any longer and for you to praise it 
over the responsible Mozilla that does properly update their cert store yet 
doesn't spy on users and demand monthly fees for using Windows 10 after the 
hapless new computer users have already paid for it through their OEMs makes no 
sense.

Besides, last I checked Microsoft had well over 300 certs in its store for USA 
users.  That is absurd.  Windows 8 Pro shipped (Nov 16 2012) with about 30 plus 
certs in the Windows store.  I have no need of the vast majority of the 300 
plus since then Microsoft added certs.  If I need a cert I don't have I can 
download and install it.  I seldom visit sites outside the USA so I have no 
need of all those certs Microsoft clutters their cert store with these days.  
Yes, Mozilla clutters with too many obscure certs too but at least Mozilla is 
still trustworthy.
