Yes I know.

Installing a self signed certificate is easy on Edge and Chrome. But did you ever try to do it dor Firefox? Firefox has its own certificate store implementation and only native code to manipulate it. So it’s easier to provide a valid certificate instead even if it means that the private key is exposed.

Concerning the extensions, this was not practical until the recent unification under web extensions. I never tried.
