Comment:

 Well, the slider got implemented based on a study concerning past
 vulnerabilities. And MSE haven't been a thing back then. Thus, it is not
 surprising that they are not accounted for in the settings. We plan to
 look again at past vulnerabilities in Firefox code in the coming weeks and
 adjust the slider accordingly. This might be a good ticket to consider
 then.
