True, but if you're running a beta test and the feedback is negative, you can't be surprised that people don't feel "respected" when you decide to push the change anyway.
Every UI change has negative feedback to some degree because a part of the user base just doesn't like change.
Overall FF is just as usable as the decade before in my opinion. And I kind of like the new tab design. The old super rounded tabs looked great for a while but it was time for a change.
I'm not a designer, but in my experience it helps to change up user interfaces now and then. However I wish we as users had more control over that. Color themes are not enough.

Why? I mean if users are used to the interface, can use without any friction and there's no real need to, why change it just for the heck of it?

So don't force them to change? Or has Mozilla really forgotten that they got their users by making the most customizable browser in the first place?
