both (FF,Brave) are by default installation not designed for real
privacy protection e.g:
looking at TB design , there are tons of work done to turn FF fork to
what you have now:

Brave just worst than even FF vanilla e.g:

So to have a TB without Tor focusing on just security and clearnet
privacy (without anonymity) from the first run by default its great idea.
