That was in 2009 - Windows 10 probably wasn't even a project at that point, for instance.

I doubt Mozilla would recommend Bing over Google again because it's more "pro-privacy."

I think the point is not so much pro vs anti privacy. On the web you have to assume every site is anti privacy, and you may have some rare pleasant surprises. To me the point is rather to spread that trail of data among multiple providers that are not known to sync their data.
