No, that's just asking you to keep uncover false downloads. I don't believe that it is saying that because your own download was false.

Everyone sees this notice, I saw it on the official desktop Firefox client. They're just trying to reach as many people as possible.

I guess Mull uses Firefox user agent to reduce fingerprinting and the Mozilla website thinks it's fake Firefox because of it.

When I go to that URL on a stock, direct FF install, I still see that notice.

For privacy promoting group, they want to know a lot of centralized information

Mozilla is getting exponentially worse in the recent few years so that's expected.
