The more market share chrome based browsers have, the easier it is for google to inflict their agenda for the internet on everyone. If firefox didnt exist, every web developer would be optimizing their sites only for chrome, and responding quickly to any change google wants to make.
It really doesn't matter what Firefox'es codebase is though. To a web developer it's a black box. It may as well be COBOL. So long as enough people use it and it behaves differently to a web developer than Google's Chromium or Chrome, the goal you mentioned is achieved. This is why I don't buy this argument.
