That's all really nice. But the fact is, we use what works. It's a pragmatic decision. They're are so few Firefox users and on the end issues are not very common.
The number of Edge users is only a few % more, do you skip that too? Just check Chrome and Safari and call it a day?
As someone that uses only Firefox and knows others who do, this really surprises me. If a website is broken on Firefox then it's shitty webdev work and I'll find another store.
Edge is the same as Chrome, so no extra testing is needed for that.
Yes, Edge has transitioned to using their own forked version of Chromium under the hood, but they make enough changes that it's necessary to test for. It's not like Cromite that takes Chromium and removes some things and change configs. They modify core components of the engine itself.
