Just because you don't often visit the Russian Medieval Manuscripts wing doesn't mean we should burn it down, jedberg.

This argument would be okish if FireFox removing FTP was like burning it down, but it's not. A browser removing FTP protocol isn't the end of FTP. There's a myriad of FTP clients you can still use.

Okay, yes, it's more like burning the card catalog, not the actual books. The books are still there, but the links that tell you where to find the book you want don't work.
