Accepting and tolerating every terrible idea, such as allowing something like firefox to actually require something like pulseaudio, is no virtue.

I agree with you: we should embrace change that ultimately makes things better and easier, even if it's hard or breaks our workflow. But Firefox requiring Pulseaudio is not the stodgy status quo; it's the change! And it was a change that Mozilla made because PulseAudio is much easier for them to support than what it replaced. Every change is hard and scary, and breaks some aspects of the status quo. But as you said:
