Tails doesn't really include Firefox but a slightly modified Tor Browser
Bundle, which is based on Firefox.

In theory one could do something like TBB for Chromium and (for the
reasons you mentioned) people actually looked into this, but there is a
long list of technical problems:

There are other reason not to switch too, like the fact that the TBB
developers are by now very familiar with the Mozilla code base.
