I'm pretty sure that forced restart is from the snap package, and you don't have that without snap.

The snap package actually doesn't have this issue at all, it just waits for you to close the browser to switch to new version but you can keep using it for however long you want without Firefox complaining like it does if a package manager messes with some files while it is open.
Nope. There are many weird things about snap, but it actually handles Firefox updates very smoothly.
No, I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on that one.
