Firefox looks like Windows firefox in (system-wide) light mode, but follows gtk3 theme in dark mode

Please look at the two screenshots for dark mode again. The first one shows what it looks like when using gtk theming, the second one shows how it should look without gtk3 theming.

The screenshot for light mode is not using gtk3 Adwaita theme. This is how firefox looks without gtk theming and this is how it looks on Windows.

I think you’re mistaken. “System theme – auto” always uses GTK colors, in both light and dark mode. The “Light” theme is different, even if the difference is more subtle than with “Dark”. “System theme” (light mode) is a distinctly warmer shade of gray than “Light” (which is the only variation you didn’t screenshot).
