What's wrong with using about:profiles?

Edit: you even can set it as bookmark into the toolbar.

Nothing really, it just feels like I'm "breaking glass" whenever I do it, so I end up using Chrome for the multi-profile use case.

If Firefox was to add a similar GUI, I'd probably get by completely without Chrome.

2 clicks instead of one. There’s an extension to make it one click, but it requires a helper app installed, which is not great.
