Firefox Home opens whenever the browser is launched, by design. However, if I leave the browser, open a link in another app, and it gets opened in Firefox, I now have two tabs - Firefox Home, and the new tab I just opened. If I want an accurate tab count, I have to close Firefox Home, which of course is only possible if I have another tab open. If Firefox is launched by any app, shouldn't it just use the existing unused tab?
