I suspect they might mean duckduckgo browser and not search engine?

    I completely forgot that existed! Double checking the technical article they do correctly label it as a browser in their testing matrix/grid.

    I just got confused by the clear "Brave browser" call out. When I hear DuckDuckGo I definitely don't think browser.

    Good catch!
