Comment (by Rezonansowy):

 Replying to [comment:2 cypherpunks]:
 > Some users use the the "core" as a privacy-enhanced Firefox. I use the
 FF ESR Portable executable launcher to facilitate this.
 I meant that core is the place where are located integrated addons, which
 you can't disable in, for example - pdf.js addon.
 Allowing users to disable something which even has no description (e.g.
 TorLauncher) would allow them to completely turn off their privacy by
 browsing through Tor.
