In Germany, Apple has a sub-16% mobile marketshare, and even less on desktop. Firefox has 43% marketshare.

Google frequently releases major products without Firefox support, with this only being added months or years later.

This is reality today.

Germany != the World.

Besides, market share of iOS in Germany is ~32% [1], and Firefox ~17% [2], according to stat counter.

And even those numbers are lower/higher(respectively) than those of countries like USA, UK, Australia, Japan etc...

Congratulations, you counted mobile usage, not desktop usage.
