When you have Twitter Container and Amazon Container both installed, Firefox will open X/Twitter in the Amazon container, despite instructing it specifically to open it in the Twitter container.
I don't know exactly which container to blame but I'm mentioning it here.
For that functionality to work, I now have to remove this addon.
