Sure, so they should have used some of that AI cash to rebuild ublock origin in rust, or push it further along the path to web assembly its already on.
They are quite literally taking the “if you don’t like it, fork it yourself” approach. Who said they aren’t going to make changes/improvements on top of it?
I don’t see anyone else mentioning it but this is also probably because brave browser is published under the MPL license so the licenses are actually compatible between projects. They don’t want to implement completely from scratch because there is a compatible existing implementation that they can build on top of instead of starting from scratch.

The code is literally right there for the taking. Why would they spend the time rebuilding something when they could just have it for free?
Because then they would have something better and would have improved one of the most popular extensions in their browser?
