Post author here. I should've expected these comments, which makes me want to clarify a couple of things.
1. Just because I'm a dev at Mozilla and I got support for buildcache landed in the Firefox repo doesn't make this a Mozilla project. I do this on my own time to help me be more efficient when I actually work.
2. I mainly do this because it's fun. Including the blogging.
3. Sccache is still the compiler cache we're officially developing at Mozilla
