Maybe they couldn't guarantee that the mobile version could run well with all of them? That's what I've always assumed.
Which I think is kinda weird decision since they could've just hidden a setting that unlocks all addons in the options. But maybe they were so incompatible at the time that it wasn't worth the headache.
If you use Beta or Nightly, you can turn on dev tools and use a custom addon list from a collection in your user account. https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2020/09/29/expanded-extension-support-in-firefox-for-android-nightly/
There is a hidden way to activate more extensions and most - if not the vast majority - extensions work fine.
There is a hidden setting for essentially that. It might be exclusive to Nightly though, idk since all I need is UBO
