Given that all iOS browsers have to use Webkit for rendering, are there any privacy benefits in using say Firefox or Brave on iOS over stock Safari?

This isn't allowing non-webkit browsers, it's just Mozilla saying they'll make a sideloaded version if they can. Unfortunately, iOS 17 didn't add sideloading, and it looks like Apple is programming iPhones to explicitly restrict it to the European Union :(
