No, it's because the safari developer tools are crap.

Also, I can't get things like the vue dev tools in safari. I'd be more likely to switch to firefox

Doing your primary development in Chrome or Firefox and testing in Safari would still be testing in Safari. Or is it apparently no longer possible to debug code that you don't have a debugger attached to? I'd contend that it's your job. And if it's slightly harder in Safari, that's a reason to ask for better tooling, but not a reason not to do your job.

occasionally opening safari for testing is far different than using it as your primary browser for development.

If the goal is to avoid a mono-culture (as called out by the OP of this thread), then switching to Firefox is perfectly acceptable - perhaps even better than switching to Safari. You've got my encouragement to do so.
