This is isn't an easy position to reach or maintain. It's not as clear-cut as the fastest browser, or the less memory-demanding browser, but it is one we have identified as holding a competitive advantage for. Security and privacy impact usability, that is a well-known fact, otherwise we'd all be using Tor by now. So let's iterate on this or other similar proposals, let's ship them off by default, let's provide great onboarding experiences, documentation, whatever it takes, but let's not shy away from even trying. Because what other path has a better chance to help us get to where we want to be?
