Apple can’t reasonably allow Gecko (Firefox’s engine) without also allowing Blink (Chrome’s engine). And we know which one is the 800lb gorilla here.

I love and support Firefox, and I even use it on my iPhone (yes, it’s reskinned WebKit, but it syncs my stuff).

I mean why not? It would actually be a pretty cool move to make Firefox a 2nd party browser on iOS given special privilege.
