All of the people in and surrounding the Firefox Desktop team knew that

Yesterday's external communication however brings a slightly uneasy
feeling after reading the blog post [1]. I did not feel like this was
targeted to the people who will (or rather might) be affected by the
changes.
Wow. You're completely right: this announcement is a total turnoff.
Mostly this is because Darren's audience is not Firefox users, but "
content creators whether they are publishers or marketers." And if
he's writing for publishers and marketers, of course his post is going
to be full of the kind of jargon that makes engineers cringe. For the
vast majority of Mozillians and Firefox users, Darren's blog post will
read like BS.
It seems like a real mistake that this was not announced in a post that
was actually addressed to users and contributors before Darren's post
for publishers and marketers went live.
