On my notebook:

  ~> rpm -qa | grep -i mozilla | sort
  MozillaFirefox-66.0.5-1.1.x86_64
  MozillaFirefox-branding-openSUSE-60-2.1.x86_64
  MozillaThunderbird-60.6.1-3.2.x86_64
  ca-certificates-mozilla-2.30-1.1.noarch
  mozilla-nspr-4.20-1.2.x86_64
  mozilla-nss-3.42.1-1.1.x86_64
  mozilla-nss-certs-3.42.1-1.1.x86_64
  mozilla-nss-tools-3.42.1-1.1.x86_64

Alas indeed only few package overall, so clearly not the norm:

  ~> rpm -qa | egrep ^[A-Z] | wc -l
  35

Though (due to Perl packages, libKF5*,...):

  ~> rpm -qa | egrep [A-Z] | wc -l
  449
