#2Mozilla is putting a lot of resources; including some of their best coders, into advancing mobile. I don't see the same on Google's side. Am I wrong?

Android and iPhone are the only mobile platforms worth worrying about for the rather longterm goal of improving the web, both have good browsers.
So unlike Mozilla Google is not practically irrelevant on mobile platforms, why then should they invest more money?

#5Google has said from the beginning that the purpose of Chrome was to move the web forward, not compete with other browsers, and I had forgotten that.

I disagree that both have good browsers. What I'm worried about is the lack of emphasis that seems to be placed; Android browser is missing a lot of html5 features (according to caniuse.com it only supports 66% of current features in Android 4.0).
Mozilla, on the other hand, seems to be making mobile a priority with all of the work they are doing in WebAPI. Their browser is updating a lot faster than Android's, which I believe still only updates with OS upgrades.

Android's browser isn't nearly as good as Chrome or Firefox and only gets updated with the OS (which means never, for most phones).
