"Better" is in the eye of the beholder.

I don't agree with your assessment, not by a long shot. I've used the
moz suite since about milestone M10 (many years ago, way before NS6
even). When I heard they were discontinuing it in favor of separate
components, I cringed, but tried the combo anyway.

I thought it severely lacking by comparison. While there isn't so much
different in TB, FF took away features that I rely heavily on,
particularly related to keyboard navigation and quick access to tools,
like cookie manager and tab history. FF is just way too mouse-dependent.
I find it quite clumsy to use.

Next time you make this FF/TB recommendation, you might want to qualify
it a bit.
