Oh really?  I started using Mozilla 0.5 or so, shortly after they split the 
code from Netscape.  There were a number of problems with all compenents (back 
before the Firefox-Thunderbird split) and submitted and voted for numerous 
bugs, reallocating my votes after certain bugs were fixed.

I would posit that Firefox is a better product specifically *because* of all 
the bug submissions.
