The commentor you've replied to says:

> The best faith interpretation I can come up with, is in fact for security purposes. It creates restrictions on (at least from Mozilla’s perspective) untrusted extensions. I mean how many extensions are there that do act maliciously? It probably isn’t trivial.

My best interpretation of that is it allows organizations to more easily allow some extensions while disallowing others.

Firefox is lagging behind on enterprise configuration options. Adding in additional features that allow sysadmins to deploy policies that can further control Firefox like Chrome and Edge could be potentially behind why this is happening.

This is of course, complete speculation and if it was for enterprise management reasons, Mozilla should have clearly communicated it.
