Sam, that is the reason why we're doing this in a normal, non-LTS release, which gives us time to identify and iron out problems and regressions like this, while exposing the change to real-world testing. The firefox deb package will remain supported for the duration of the 21.10 release, so this is not locking users or extensions out.
