I generally have a "home" Firefox window with my most used tabs pinned. Sometimes I close it before another window, so I was frustrated to "lose" it and having to redo my pins. But recently I discovered this feature. Joy!

Wait, what? You don't want them to save bookmarks? Then what is the use of a bookmark? And you can definitely set your browser to erase your history every time you close it.
No, they save a history of what you bookmarked and when. It's easily trackable to which websites you've just been to. Go to your hamburger bar and look at your bookmarks and history.
I don't see it as an issue since its locally stored if you don't have sync turned on. This will only be an issue if your device is compromised, and in such instances your bookmarks would be the least of your worries.
