Firefox for Android does not support Material UI, has a low minimum API level, and generally seems lacking in features. Why is that?

Edit 1: also the downloading function is super unstable, I lost several files due to firefox starting the download then stopping and removing the download for no reason.

I'm pretty sure the reason why it doesn't use Material Design is to protect it's own branding. Material Design is Google's after all.
