This may be difficult to maintain as some query parameters might be necessary. How will they be sure they’re not stripping essential elements? Won’t this become an arms race to mask tracking elements as “legitimate” looking parameters?
Awesome if they can pull it off, though.
Maybe, but only like 3% of people are using Firefox so, maybe not?

At least in Germany, it's about 10%.
