Firefox forks will fall behind web standards very quickly without Mozilla doing the heavy lifting. A browser isn't useful unless the majority of websites work in it.

Because Mozilla does the heavy lifting of implementing all those web platform features Google keeps pumping out. If that stops, it will not be long before you start seeing broken websites with “upgrade to Chrome” messages on them.
