Major distinction: A scientist is not the CEO of the theories they develop, and the use of those theories does not directly benefit them. Plus, almost everyone in that list are dead so they wouldn’t benefit in any way. Compare that to the current CEO of brave being an ass, and the fact that use of the Brave browser directly benefits his company, which he has a direct stake in.

When he is kicked completely off the Brave corporate ladder, the attitudes toward that organization is likely to change, but that’s probably not happening any time in the near future.
