Excuse me?

I love Firefox. I don't want it to retire and why would you want to limit choices for other people?

Also how do you make the case that Chromium can survive without Google continuous investment in Chrome?

Mozilla got money to continue Firefox to give competition. People can say whatever they want but Firefox is a good browser and the company have made many good moves to make the internet a good and open place where as others have attacked it. To tell a company to retire it main product that bring it money is beyond reason. Especially a company that aren't doing any harm to anybody.
