Why would switching browsers twice make it any easier?
Because once you learn how to switch browsers once, you already know what the process of changing browsers looks like and what to expect, removing the barriers if you switch again.
It's like switching from Windows to Ubuntu. Sure, Ubuntu is not perfect, but by installing Ubuntu, you have already learned the process of installing a linux distro and what to expect if you decide to install a different one.
Except brave doesn't teach them how to block ads or mine crypto so I still fail to see how if they were to switch to brave it would make their switch to a sane browser less painful. They just have to switch twice instead of once.
By having a browser that behaves 99% like the one they used for years before. Not everyone wants to spend time learning new tools and how said tools work, if a similar better tool exists, and is switched to, that's alredy better than sticking with Ghrome
