Actually, there's isn't really any compelling reason for a distribution to ship "Firefox". Arch and Debian, for instance, don't ship "Firefox"; they ship Shiretoko and Iceweasel (respectively) instead.

The point was: people want to actually use software. The beauty of Free Software is not that we can all browse or search the Internet anonymously, it is that there are distributions like Incognito.

I owe you the link, I am afraid to google it. ;-)
