What's wrong with `firefox -P`?

Compared to Chrome profiles, it's much less usable in regard to launcher icons and window management. There are workarounds (system-specific), but none I saw worked as nice as Chrome's implementation.

Container tabs are (IMHO) better than Chrome profiles, because they don't require one to have a separate window just to open a single site.

You mean compared to just right clicking the top right corner in Chrome? A lot.
You can also run several profiles in parallel with the no-remote flag.
