So first off, ArchLinux has recommended that same behavior since 2013, particular towards Firefox:

This was added to the Lubuntu default configuration in 2016:

It sounds like it was done specifically to resolve an issue with pcmanfm opening terminals and not focusing the terminals despite having focusNew set to yes.

This might still an issue in pcmanfm, I don't know. Luckily, for Lubuntu, we use pcmanfm-qt.

So as far as I can see, we can get rid of the heavy-handed section from the lubuntu-default-configuration.
