I agree that the setup.exe is a much better way of deploying than a MSI-wrapped 
.exe but it is not industry standard to deploy in this way to large 
environments.
Looking forward with modern deployment it will be MSI or APPX in the frontline 
to deploy applications on Windows 10, not .exe files.

My 2 cents: If Frontmotion can do it in what seems an automated fashion, why 
can't Mozilla do it?

(Not as well, I have reached out several times during the last three years to 
give assistance on the subject but have never heard back)

Yes, let's not forget that MSI is Windows only.  With CCK2, we can use the same 
config files on different OS.  We deploy a lot of applications with SCCM, and 
in my opinion, the MSI-based ones aren't any better or easier.
