 > It's your task. You are making privacy-preserving browser, not Mozilla.

 Mozilla uplifts Tor Browser patches to upstream Firefox, so that statement
 is not true.

 > If you are going to upgrade the browser with Mozilla code, you will have
 to create missing APIs you need.

 Ok, then they (Tor Browser developers) will ask Mozilla to add those
 missing APIs, and not TB devs themselves, right?
