I thought they're trying to reinvent in-memory key-val storage meant for caching.

I don't think this name is very fitting, because that was my first thought as well. Something like "Firefox local assistant" would probably be a bit clearer.

I think it's gonna be another Pocket -- stuff nobody wants that Mozilla keeps on pushing for no apparent reason.

But I like pocket...I save all my recipes in there

I agree Pocket part. Pocket is literally an extension. Why they’re installing it built-in and don’t let us remove?

I think they should’ve made it as extension, install it by default and let us remove it.

Looks like Mozilla is inspired by Microsoft's great naming skills

Let's call everything link, but each product misspelled in a unique way.
