Mozilla is not IBM; Rometti got 20 mil while the Mozilla CEO got 2 mil. CEO to CEO, different markets, different rates, the same principle applies.

IBM revenue was $54.1 billion in 2021. Mozilla around ~0.5 billion - a ratio of ~100. Thus, Mozilla CEO should get only 0.2 million not 2 million.

Well, I'd say not everything is linear. All I'm saying is, this is nowhere near as arrogant as the OP made it sound.

The difference between 0.2 million and 2 million for a board of directors is literally a rounding error.
