Not really. It's easy to see exactly where the code is for a new feature by reading the commit history. It shows more or less exactly what to cut out.
And that's easy to do right now.
But that's permanent, unfixable, and potentially ever-increasing tech debt they are taking on.
How easy will it be to do when it's an old feature?
"Permanent, unfixable, and potentially ever-increasing tech debt" is just a description of maintaining a web browser. Using Chromium is still orders of magnitude less work then starting from scratch.
And orders of magnitude worse than just firefox.
It's just code. It's not like it's cursed.
There's a reason my title on github is "Code Exorcist"
It's just code...
