The last time I checked with the graphics team, at this point it's completely unclear whether Quantum Render is going to make it, and as such, it's not reasonable for us to depend on anything that WebRender provides for Photon, because if QR wouldn't make it to 57 then we wouldn't have a backup plan.
In addition, AFAIK, only about half of Firefox Windows users have GPUs that are compatible with WebRender acceleration. We need Photon to perform well for users stuck on the software rendering path.
