I should add that this was not a case of "money versus something that Mozilla users wanted", but rather a case of "the core Mozilla Community clearly doesn't want it but User Research suggests that most Mozilla users actually do".

While it is quite possible that money may have subtly influenced perception and pushed us towards overconfidence, the intention has always been to serve our users.
