Why doesn't firefox use searx.me as its default search engine and doesn't even offer it as a suggestion, as suggest Bing, Yahoo, Google and others?

~~As far as I know, you have to use something like Add custom search engine extension. I am using SearX this way as a default search engine, and it works flawlessly.~~

Not necessary with SearX supporting OpenSearch. See @[email protected]'s comment below.
