One usually sees only articles introducing new extensions and prompting to install them, not the other way around.

yup, plus I recognize the average user can easily keep track of how built-in protections and extensions might overlap. nowadays once hardened firefox makes most of them useless, nice to see.

My thoughts, exactly. I can only agree. I have often thought about some extension only to keep it installed anyway because I was not sure its functionality truly overlapped with something new added to the browser or with another extension.
