2- Firefox upgrades - why full install?

Easier distribution. If it were segmented, it'd be a PITA to maintain by the people doing the installer.


Well, they just never got around to it until Firefox 1.5. Having the full installer as an "upgrade" was very unfriendly to the many people still on dialup.

Generally maintaining a patch upgrade system is pretty easy these days with the developer tools out there.
