Comment (by tom):

 I agree with this in theory (even for non NGHS) - but what APIs are you
 specifically interested in?  I'm not sure if FF currently ships any such
 APIs that Tor Browser enables. For example: Web Bluetooth and EME we turn
 off; Service Workers is disabled in ESR also I believe. IS there any other
 such API? (In FF geolocation is not (yet?) required to be on a secure
 origin but of course we disable it.)
