Details

After enabling automatic start at startup, I still manually run Firefox because I am faster than the autostartup.
When the autostartup code executes, Firefox is already running, and a new window is opened instead.

:nshukla we have an argument specific to start on startup right? Fixing this is probably as easy as verifying cmdLine.state == Ci.nsICommandLine.STATE_INITIAL_LAUNCH in the case that we're launched with the autostart in BrowserContentHandler.sys.mjs, and early exit if not.
