I mean Mozilla is notorious for having serious bugs open forever. No other project of its size and resources does that

I really seriously doubt that. There aren't a lot of comparable projects by size and openness.

If you compare apples to apples (maybe LibreOffice? I dunno.) I doubt you'd find much difference.

the difference is five people use LibreOffice, while Mozilla is an actual consumer product

Also, the definition of "serious" is pretty vague. I think we have a good track record with security bugs.

the Pinboard bookmarklet works in Chromium (on github pages, for example). So it’s not an equivalent bug. Also it’s assigned!

Take bug assignation with a grain of salt. Plenty of assigned bugs are moribund.
