Comment (by vynX):

 Given that no other web browser is recommendable to average users I run
 into three use cases not exactly considered here (a) some people have a
 Tor Router not on localhost, (b) some people have an HTTP proxy in front
 of Tor (see also #16046), (c) some people have some sites that must be
 used without Tor or generally want to use torbrowser without Tor. I would
 want to be able to serve such people Torbrowser even if not being used the
 default way...
