This is a very useful comment.

I knew Servo was part of Mozilla, but was confused by the article. It said 2013 was in use, but listed multiple major issues with it that I would think would prevent FF from being acceptable by any normal person.

Knowing it was a project and not a part of the current FF engine (as I had assumed) is the context I was missing.

Thank you. I don’t follow FF development closely enough to know this stuff, I just know enough to recognize a few project names.

Also note that Servo is no longer a part of Mozilla. Servo's development now has nothing to do with Firefox's needs or roadmap. They're completely independent and are chasing their own goals.
I did see that, but forgot to mention it above. You’re right that’s important info too.
