It's worth noting that there can be a substantial cost in time, money, and other resources in replacing all the individual tools and software used throughout an organization as diverse as Mozilla. It can be extremely disruptive to change tools, between possible incompatibilities and the re-training required, not to mention simple slowdowns in workflow.
