Bug in Importing Firefox History & Passwords !
Well, I told you what to do, and you even said that it doesn't work on a brand new machine and Windows installation, which is Not true, as you can see in the video. lying or not it's all up to you, not judging.
I'm just telling you that your Firefox data might be corrupted and years of history that you got there, like you said, could also be an issue and cause problem.
the fact that you don't want to do anything and just ask Microsoft to fix a problem (that might not even exist) and that is not universal, is a bad idea. they might break something that otherwise works just fine and cause further issues some other place in the code.
I'm not talking about others (family, friends etc), if you want I can say that it works fine for my family, friends etc.

It would have been my problem if it happened on a machine or 2
But not on every single machine I tested (mine or not and mostly not mine) for the past 1.5 years !
And I chatted with them before and sent a lot of things they asked from me and they know that it's their problem, so you can just stop now you are not helping anyone at all.

your initial post is about Edge or Chromium browsers in general not having the option to import from Firefox. it wasn't about Edge having problem with Firefox import.
so the responses you received from Microsoft employees were not about Edge having problem, but about Edge not having Import option from Firefox.
you refuse to try to reinstall Firefox and Edge on a new Windows installation, even though you are using sync in those browsers.
you refuse to try the import, like I did, on a brand new installation.
it's not about how many machines you try, you could configure all of them the same way, install the same thing on all of them and so they all get the same problem.
