Why we Forked Firefox and Not Chromium

It does. For example Firefox made some features as API and declared interfaces, while Chrome didn't and left it as internal functions, which you cannot rely on, you cannot be sure that interface won't change.

Unless it's exported to 3rd parties it's an internal function. Just because it's JavaScript doesn't make it stable API.

And just because it's internal doesn't mean it's not an API.
