This is a pretty significant improvement for users of screen readers and some other software, so I think it is worthy of a release note. We could say something like:

Firefox 113 introduces a redesigned accessibility engine which significantly improves the speed, responsiveness and stability of Firefox for users of screen readers, as well as certain other accessibility software, east Asian input methods, enterprise single sign-on software and other applications which use accessibility frameworks to access information.

Note that although this bug talks about Mac only, 113 will be the first release where this pref is flipped for Windows and Linux users as well (see bug 1824293), so this isn't Mac specific.
