> Unsigned Add-ons, which allows for add-on development where it isn't possible otherwise

It is possible, you've just chosen to disallow it.

To be clear: the Firefox team took deliberate steps to make sure that add-ons can't be tested or developed in the stock builds of Firefox downloaded from Mozilla.

Don't think you're right. You can use FDE for add-ons development, just like parent said.

See your sibling below: > Unsigned addons cannot be enabled on beta or release. That was only available for a limited time. Now they can only be enabled on alpha (aka developer), nightly, or special unbranded builds.

Please read and understand the entire comment chain you're replying to. I'm well aware that you can use Firefox Developer Edition to develop add-ons. (I'm the one who first mentioned it!)
