Because pretty much all their revenue comes from Google.

Making Firefox even less desirable by "googlifying" it pushes Firefox users away and kills its image of a viable competitor. That's exactly what Google is paying for.
Why would Google destroy the cover they have for keeping control over Chrome and 70% of internet users, just to squeeze a bit more ad revenue from what, 2% of users?

I think Google will try to annoy Firefox users into using Chrome instead via things like needless captchas.
