Chromium vs Firefox : Need testimonies

[p s]

I have been using Lubuntu for over a year on daily basis, mostly on my netbook. I have both Firefox and Chromium installed, and I use Chromium exclusively.
 (-) Firefox: you cannot Shift + mouse wheel to scroll horizontally in Firefox - this is a limitation on Gecko engine - there is no way to come around this. In my netbook, this makes Firefox useless to browse any page which is wider that screen size. Chromium handles Shift + mouse wheel perfectly.
(+) Chromium: Runs in a sandbox. As a user browsing web, Chromium is safer than Firefox. May be delivering an apparmor profile for Firefox can address this, but Chromium has this built it. A downside of this is that Chromium does not run in the Guest account. The only reason I still keep Firefox, is to have to for guests that want to check email via Lubuntu Guest account.
(+) Chromium opens faster that Firefox. When browsing they are mostly same.
(+) I have never had a browser related crash by Chromium - I use both 32bit version of Lubuntu on my netbook and the 64 bit one in my laptop. I have flash installed, but click to play for plugins.
(-) Firefox consumes by default more screen estate than Chromium.
(-) Chromium is somehow tingly connected to Google, but at some extent so is Firefox by default. You can tweak both not to send any data to Google. If really a concern than use SWIron fork instead on Chromium.
In short, I think all people that use Lubuntu have their own idea on what apps to use. On every Lubuntu update I have to uninstall most of what you guys provide. The less user apps you provide the better - may be provide only a list of recommended apps, and let each decide on his own.
