I 100% agree with your stance on AirBnB.

I just don't see how that would make someone ineffective as an interim CEO for a web browser company

Shit, I have history working for McDonald's, HP, and IBM. All companies that have also done a litany of questionable shit. Does it make me bad? Am I not pure enough for Mozilla either?
