Read my grandparent comment carefully.

Suppose you have two products A, B. They are roughly feature equivalent but B has a 10x more engineering effort put in towards QOL improvements and fixing the long tail of performance issues.

You are not going to notice this if you generally use A and only once in a while use B.

OTOH, if you use B and suddenly get transported to a A-only world you are going to miss the polish.

Another way to think about this is to compare cheap clothes/shoes to well made expensive ones.

I used Chrome for 8 years prior. I didn't miss a thing after the switch except my autocomplete/history, which I built back up over a few weeks.

You sound like you haven't actually used Firefox recently. If you have, then maybe give specifics.
