Not everybody uses/wants this or that feature in Firefox and there is often debates of whether certain things should be in core code instead. A few did get put in like "Copy image" for win/mac and also smooth scroll over time. Single window tabbed browsing is a tricky thing to have working properly as to why there are extensions for this still at moment.
