I personally think it is silly to try to keep alive. If it was good Mozilla would've used it more. You can have your own take though

So you believe that Mozilla was just "cutting useless bloat" on the sole basis that "If it was good Mozilla would’ve used it more"? Yes, I think I will stick with my own take. They dropped it because making web engines is expensive and they no longer wanted to invest in making a new one in Rust. It was good, that's the entire reason people are complaining.
