This makes it sound like adding vulnerabilities was a deliberate, conscious choice. I don't think this is reasonable position to take.

Conscious choice as in "let's put in this and that vulnerability and then patch it later"? Probably not. Conscious choice as in "let's give priority to 'cool features', not worry that much about security, and then patch security problems as they are reported"? Far more likely. The way users applaud whenever the FF devs patch a hole, where is the incentive for them to do any better? I don't see any.
