My understanding is that we're generally not supposed to include the in-tree mozconfigs in our local builds, since they are free to make various automation-only assumptions, which seems to be what happened here. It's tempting to do it anyway though, for some abstract feeling that the build will more closely resemble an official one. (I used to do something like this as well!) I believe many people have fallen into this trap over the years, most likely because of MDN pages[1] that appeared to suggest using automation mozconfigs directly (there's at least a warning on the page now).
