I think I should add part ( if not majority ) of the reason Google started developing Chrome was because the initial Firefox 4 vision, e10s, and its expected performance improvement didn't deliver.

Google was forced to do it by themselves.

I dont ever see that from Mozilla community. No one is bashing them for starting side business or charging for something other than the Browser. The problem is none of their side project were successful in business terms.
