Biased why because I work on Firefox? I work on a lot of Open Source projects.

Thinking and knowing what the best experience for your users is two different things. I would bet money if you surveyed fedora users they would pick Firefox and Gnome.
Personally I prefer data over knee jerk reactions because honestly this is what I see going on. I don't see a demand from users that want a different default I see developers who want to choose a different default based on their own beliefs.
If your users want something other than Firefox then give it to them but I don't see that argument being made.
