The user agent stylesheet hides elements with the ID cookie_notice (#cookie_notice) because the shield for cookie consent banners is activated in the browser.
Good catch. :) Might be worth thinking about changing the ID's so they don't trigger this.

I don't use it myself but reports seem to indicate that it has some advantages. I'm not sure it can be called an inferior browser.

Brave is Chromium based browser which is the case for most browser these days. Edge, Opera and of course Chrome. The only real exceptions are Firefox and Mac browser.

The cookie consent blocking is something Brave added, it's doing what you want. That said If it's based solely on the ID of the element that can lead to false positives.
