Why the bloody hell does OnionBrowser on iOS not just use Firefox?

I wonder how Brave and Tor browser compare re anonymity, privacy and
security. It seems unlikely that Brave would do a better job.

Also, the idea of running clearnet and Tor-mediated tabs in the same
browser is pretty iffy. I mean, I don't even risk doing that in the same
VM. And indeed, using Whonix, there is no clearnet connectivity.
