I use Brave Browser. I didn't know it existed until about 2 months ago. It would not be the draw to the distro. Firefox is more well known. You can save bookmarks between platforms using a Firefox profile. You cannot with Brave yet.
Jerry did not add Brave to Lite Software. He added it to the list of browsers you can set as default via Lite Tweaks.
I think you're projecting your browser feelings onto what you perceive others would want. I know what some people besides me want because I read about it in this forum and I have helped people in this forum, the Linux.com forum, and in person make the switch to Linux. No one has said "If this only had the Brave Browser, I'd be all over it."
From my experience working with people and their Linux transition, I can say most regular people are not browser snobs. They just want to get to the Internet. And when they're browsing, they'd like to be able to use their bookmarks.
Again, I use and like Brave on my PC and mobile devices. But it's not ready to replace Firefox as the pre-installed browser in Linux Lite. It's just not.
