Why is firefox packaged in such a broken way (versioned dirs under
/usr/lib)? I do not see any sense for such a layout on an rpm managed
system.

ABI compatibility between versions is not guaranteed and does (and has in the past) change even on stable branches. Additionally, the .so files are not versioned so we can't do dependencies that way.
