systemwide Webview for Android and Linux
sandbox compatible with Chromium, especially on Linux and Android
webapps through a secondary profile
very secure preset in privacy settings to make it en par with Torbrowser / Arkenfox
native support for custom Search engines (literally Edge and Chrome have that)
possibility for a side panel with custom sites.

Thats it basically. Firefox is great

native support for custom Search engines

Can you explain what do you mean by this? I'm already using Firefox address bar to search game wikis directly

Fenix allows actual manual search engines but no opensearch, Desktop allows opensearch but no manual ones. Yay!

All the good sites have no opensearch, and you cant do cool stuff like presetting the sorting or only used on Ebay.

sandbox compatible? Elaborate please
PWAs would be awesome, agreed
bad for casual, non-techie users, which expect pages to work
every site that supports opensearch is supported, just go on a page supporting it, click on the address bar and click on the green plus symbol
side bar exists as an API for extensions, same for containers! Mozilla provides an official extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/side-view/

Geckoview is not a webview for those Platforms.

The Chromium sandbox is way better

Very secure profile. Your argument makes no sense, it would be opt in and Arkenfox works nearly everywhere.

Yeah I am not talking about opensearch but actual custom Search parameters. Fenix doesnt support opensearch too.

~~Oh nice extension, will try that!~~ no that is not a sidebar I would like

Addition: gui button for managing profiles, especially for secure and insecure profile. Most people dont even know profiles exist!

Also: unlocking profile with hardware key
