And just quoting this blog post for the reasons: "Firebug 2 doesn’t work in multi-process browsers (i.e. e10s) and converting it is too complex, it will stop working when e10s is activated in Firefox." Where "too complex" means that the multi-process change would have meant a major recreation of the Firebug code base and the team behind it didn't have enough manpower to do it. Note that Firebug is still open source <https://github.com/firebug/firebug> after all, so if you want to start a kickstarter campaign and find people willing to revive it, you are welcome to do so. Though at this point I think it makes more sense in pushing the Firefox DevTools to implement the missing pieces Firebug had.
