I really doubt the oopses were intentional.

It doesn't matter if they were intentional. The author mentioned there may hav been hundreds of these "oops" events. Assuming it wasn't intentional, Google knew there was a problem and chose not to fix it.

"Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me."

Or in Google's case, "fool Mozilla a hundred times..."

This is semantics - he's saying that the individual "oopses" were accidental, but you're saying the overall strategy of neglecting Firefox support was intentional. This jells with what others here have said about individual googlers vs. executive leadership / emergent organizational behavior.
