There remains the faint possibility that these sites already work in Firefox for some reason, and I'd like to understand why, or if they don't, then I'd like to understand why we haven't felt the need for this hack. Plus I think that in the spirit of making decisions based on data, we should expect actual data to be presented if possible, especially if requested, and here it seems like it should be easy, yet I asked for specific examples earlier and none have been forthcoming.

We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all."
