I understand that, and what you say is entirely possible, in theory. On the other hand, I see that the tests performed there are pretty standard. I mean, there is nothing exotic that only Brave does well there and Librewolf shines as well. Then, c'mon, Brave surely had missteps in the past, but is generally know to be a solid choice with regard to privacy.
That said, there's an open issue with the same concerns. Even if I'd say that nobody would complain about the employer of the author if Firefox came out with better score from those test...
