Do you have a source? The first example I found is a bit dated (2016), but contradicts that claim: https://zdnet1.cbsistatic.com/hub/i/r/2016/06/18/77931904-cb...

This source (2020) also claims that global Firefox use is about 4% while Edge is under 3%, contradicting the claim (even including non-MacOS devices): https://gs.statcounter.com/

Another 2020 source gives 5.5% to Firefox and 0.5% to Edge on MacOS, also contradicting the claim: https://netmarketshare.com/?options=%7B%22filter%22%3A%7B%22...

Naturally it increased after it switched to Chromium and became the Windows default.

Choose your own source:

Apple M1 silicon will mostly or entirely run MacOS, not Windows.

You never know - would you say that 20 years ago that very significant push for Linux will be done by Microsoft?

This conversation is around whether Apple Silicon is ready. In that context, Edge is far behind Firefox.
