Competition is healthy for a market, this is proof that people aren't happy with the default browser and it'll hopefully spur apple into improving their browser and in turn causing brave to improve even more

I don't think this is a good thing, brave is good out of the box but do not provide good browsing experience
And once again, I am seriously questioning Apple's privacy claims. Why else would Apple build such a moat around Safari?
Because they can limit it and thus make app more attractive and keep a 30% cut?
Same reasons as Internet Explorer, probably
There is zero reason to switch browsers on iOS, They all run the same engine. Safari also has extensions (which I believe 3rd party browsers can't use).
Normal people don't choose the browser based on the underlying engine
