Two things:

- I think the font on ubuntu.com looks less bad than the FF start page font. This is probably because the ubuntu.com font is smaller. If you magnify the ubuntu.com text, you will see faint halos along straight lines (like lower-case t); if you magnify the FF start page, you will see less faint halos instead; but if you magnify GUI fonts in Hardy, you will see no halos at all.

- ubuntu.com probably targets Windows/Mac users as well as Ubuntu users, while the Firefox start page definitely targets Ubuntu users. So it might be acceptable if ubuntu.com looks sub-optimal on Ubuntu systems if this means that it looks good on non-Ubuntu systems. But IMO for the FF start page should be made optimal for Ubuntu users, even if that involves a deviation from the ubuntu.com theme.
