The most important setting is missing for visually impaired persons: Thick and 'Very thick' scrollbars.
Only usability and accessibility count in working environments, especially for impaired users.
Currently Mozilla does NOT restrict addon access to Firefox settings, as this addon proves:
https://addons.vaultpit.io/en-US/firefox/addon/toggle-resist-fingerprinting
Thus "Custom Scrollbars" should be able to offer much more options.
BUT: You can configure thick scrollbars manually in Firefox, as this tutorial shows. It works perfectly. Just translate the tutorial to your language.

თარიღი წლის წინThe problem has never been with Firefox restricting access to settings. The problem is that Firefox has implemented scrollbars using the W3C standard, which doesn't support a wide scrollbar. This means that the browser simply does not support any width other than default, thin, and none. You can see the specification here: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-scrollbars/#scrollbar-width
You can, as you pointed out, change the scrollbar width globally across Firefox using some modifications to about:config. The challenge with this is that the user needs to do it manually since the add-on cannot change any settings in about:config. Long ago, add-ons used to be able change settings there, but when Firefox converted everything to use webextension technology that ability was removed and will not come back: https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/webextension-read-write-access-to-about-config/12268
The Toggle Resist Fingerprinting add-on that you referenced does have access to a very limited set of privacy-related settings, but only because Firefox has chosen to make those settings available to add-ons: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/privacy
