Im 100% certain there is enough funding going to mozilla that is specifically intended to help firefox. All those donors, private and commercial, could/would switch if the public stunt of declaring mozilla a sinking ship is aggressive enough. I dont believe for even a second that more than 5-10% of mozillas money is going towards actual core firefox/thunderbird dev work. Its not cheap to develop im sure, but nowhere near the amount of money that mozilla sucks up every year.

Their finance reports are public. You should look at those, if that’s what you believe.
