You’re spot on: You are reacting seemingly without understanding the fundamentals of what you are reacting to.

Certificate Transparency [1] is an important technology that improves TLS/HTTPS security, and the name was not invented by Mozilla to my knowledge.

If Firefox were to implement a hypothetical IETF standard called “private caching”, would you also be cynical about Firefox “doing something private at this point in time” without even reading up what the technology in question does?
