there is nothing in the firefox deb apart from some meta data and the
maintainer scripts to i.e. set up alternatives ... 

there are apt specific things that snap can not provide to apt directly
(some dependencies on the apt side, setting alternatives, some mime
pieces and last but not least the upgrade managemnt for older installs
that only had the deb installed (without the empty firefox deb these
users would have lost their browser during releas upgrades))

this is why you should make sure to keep the firefox deb installed
alongside with the snap ...

ciao
