If that happens, Google becomes a monopoly, if it isn't already. They don't want this (or at least they haven't, but they might think it won't matter now). If they continue wanting Firefox to be relevant to help their argument that they aren't a monopoly, they'll do what they can to ensure Firefox continues to work.

Or Google thinks all the other illegal crap they routinely get away with is a leading sign that they will also get away with becoming a monopoly...
