Yes. And no. That's more their marketing pitch than anything to fuss over. 
I'm more advocating a version of Firefox that is slightly behind, slightly 
more open to legacy, and definitely helpful for running TiddlyFox for a 
while yet. That is all. And FirefoxESR is pretty much that for desktop 
users.

There is NO list you have to sign to. That's just spiel on the Mozilla 
site. 

Basically its Firefox with a bit more flexibility and, at the moment, less 
swishing about all over the shop the other versions will be doing for the 
next half year.

I agree. With some reluctance, as my several years Firefox setup has served 
well.

I agree.

Its a nice & interesting probing. It would be interesting to see an example 
and whether it could be generalised.
