I'd agree with you, except for Google's long and sordid history of doing exactly that, time and time again (found with a 30-second search):

Google knows that every time they release a Firefox bug, FF's user percentage goes down a tiny bit. Repeat over dozens of bugs, for years, and you have a strategy.

There's one blog post from another Mozillian that I can't find anywhere that came out within the last year with other examples, I think it was on HN.

I read that post. It was enough to convince me of malice at the time. I don't have the link though.
