Turning the question around, Firefox also makes mobile browsers, so why should they have created Lockbox at all?
There are many reasons to want to use different browsers:
* Your spouse prefers a different browser
* Firefox doesn't work as well on MacOS as Windows/Linux
* You need to use multiple browsers for testing
* You currently use Firefox everywhere, but don't want to be locked into that decision.
The only reason I don't use Firefox Sync is because I don't want my password manager tied to single browser. I would have pounced on this in a heartbeat if a chrome plugin to Sync was available a year ago.
