I wonder if there's a story behind this, like being disabled due to instability.

Rethinking extension data consent: Clarity, consistency, and control
Hello, extension developers! I’m Alan, the Product Manager at Mozilla responsible for the Firefox add-ons ecosystem. I wanted to share news about a project we’re working on that will streamline ...
We’re simplifying how extensions gets consent to collect data
In 2025 we will launch a new data consent experience for extensions, built into the Firefox add-on installation flow itself. This will dramatically reduce the:
- development effort required to be compliant with Firefox data policies
- confusion users faces when installing extensions by providing a more consistent experience, giving them more confidence and control around the data collected or transmitted
- effort it takes AMO reviewers to evaluate an extension version to ensure it’s compliant with our data collection policies
