So Mozilla would have to maintain two apps?

Hmm, I don't see any other option

They have been maintaining two apps since many years. The change is going from Safari's WebKit to Gecko, the same they use for Android and desktop systems. It probably means less work for them as they can share more easily changes from the other builds to iOS.
