I'm sure someone on the Firefox Team didn't wake up one morning

Having a reading list was, in fact, plotted out as a desired Firefox
feature. Before Pocket came into the picture, Mozilla was working on its
own implementation of such a feature:

I wasn't privy to the decision making process involved in swapping
Reading List out for Pocket. However, as a general principle, there
seems to be a certain kind of wisdom in accepting an offer from a third
party to support an operationally expensive feature.
