Being that Brave and numerous other browsers are built on Chrome, does that mean they will also have this limitation?

Brave's CEO has said they'll add back any functionality that ad blocker extensions need to keep working under Manifest v3.

Brave has their own built-in adblocker so I don't see them putting any effort into keeping Mv3 around after it's actually removed from Chromium.

You mean MV2. I've said we'll keep support uBO and uMatrix uses of it, at least. This means we'd have support from the maintainers for their builds to produce extensions we can add to our component updater as optional for our users. We are discussing this now with uBO/uM maintainers.
