Are you not quitting Firefox before login out/rebooting?

Of course, doesn't everyone?

as far as i am everyone i cleanly quit every application before
logoff
and even reboot in a VT and not from the GUI - well, i sync all my
data
and userhome with a script between the locations where i work
followed
by a && poweroff

I don't know anyone who does that. The assumption is that logging off
should signal every running process to quit cleanly. That's what
SIGTERM is for

and obviously KDE at logout don't send clean SIGTERM in all cases or fire similar to systemd SIGKILL to not fast enough exited applications which can happen too soon if your machine is under load and so takes longer - if a logout would wait 15 minutes we would have another thread

any common sense tells me for 15 years it's better to quit applications cleanly by hand on any OS

what's te purpose of all that "session restore" stuff?

wether a machine is running and in use, locked because used in background or suspended
