Comment (by boklm):

 Firefox is including its version number in the UserAgent string, so it is
 easy for a website to detect if Firefox is up to date. In Tor Browser
 however, we are only including the major version number, and not the minor
 version number, so it is more difficult for a website to know if Tor
 Browser is up to date.
