My understanding of that quote is that older versions of TB cannot be
upgraded to version 78.0, but rather that it has to be freshly
installed. I don't use TB but assume that this refers to the in-program 
update process (Firefox has a similar procedure), which Fedora users
won't generally be using anyway. I assume Fedora will continue to
support TB via the package manager as usual.
