Comment:

 You mean 8.5.1 is the last version that worked for you? I am asking as
 8.5.2 and 8.5.3 were emergency releases fixing serious security
 vulnerabilities and shipped with an updated NoScript version. I would not
 expect your bug out of those changes.

 However, I'd expect that's due to the fix for #30565. Alex, I guess we
 could just omit setting `network.cookie.lifetimePolicy` in case the user
 leaves PBM? That pref value is not critical for "remember history"-mode.
