Nor for Mozilla to track its users. There shouldn't be a start page at
all as it opens a connection back to the start page server before you
(easily) have a chance to disable it. It is especially annoying that
that after updates you still get some Mozilla update page (that at
fisrt glance appears to be from a remote server, though maybe there is
some trickery going on) even though the start page is disabled.
I would think respecting the privacy of our users would be a good reason
for having no start page the default.
