To me this doesn't sound like a massive amount of work went into this, it's just a sidebar that displays a web page.

Pretty much the same thing happened with Pocket. "Why is Pocket integrated to Firefox?" "Well it's a project wholly owned by Mozilla. If you don't like it, you can just remove the button." "Well I still don't like it at all - can I remove it entirely to reclaim some of the bloat?" "What bloat? It's just a button and a few web API calls, disk/memory saving would be negligible."
