It's how the anti-fingerprint features in browsers like LibreWolf and Mullvad are supposed to work: make all copies of the browser appear the same, which means forcing some options in the browser settings, so that nobody sticks out. Brave chooses to do so by randomizing some of your browser fingerprint data, which really doesn't prevent you from standing out, it just means that your fingerprint info the trackers collect isn't going to be accurate.
