As Firefox is a very fast Javascript interpreter this does make sense.
But it supposedly makes it completely incompatible with Android from

But can an "OS" completely done in Jacascript be a valid alternate
foundation for cell phone and Tablet designs ?
A lot of people who should know better think that the GUI is the OS. As
far as I know, Firefox OS is Linux with all GUI interfacing done by
HTML5 hence JavaScript etc., from my limited reading I don't know
whether there's a native-code capability which might mean that as a
platform it's even more restrictive than Android.
