I’m honestly astonished that Google hasn’t pulled the plug on Mozilla yet. After all, their missions completely and utterly oppose each other and Mozilla probably causes the biggest losses to Google.
If your prediction comes true, which isn’t unlikely, Firefox forks that already exist would probably take its spot. Or privacy friendly Chromium based browsers. I know, the latter sounds like an oxymoron, but they exist and one of them I would be hated on for naming has actually been proven to have better out of the box privacy than Firefox.

The problem with privacy-friendly Chromium is that no one is building a mobile counterpart.
Mozilla’s mobile version of Firefox supports desktop extensions. It’s not inherently privacy friendly but you can make it that way.
Yeah but chromium…
But if Mozilla goes, Google are setting themselves up for a hell of a lawsuit, since the only cross-device browser would be Chrome (and it’s children)
