I have met Steve at Ms several times, and he always seemed like a nice and genuinely motivated person. He seemed to like product challenges and even took on hard tasks like leading the core team of Windows 8.1 App enablement ( think of getting Facebook to create a Windows native app). I'd believe him that Mozilla treated him wrongly or asked unfair things of him, otherwise he wouldn't need to take these steps.
