This isnt a button, mate. Its a menu entry. And the entry they usually use is still right there, above it. Not everything has to be designed for people with a room temperature IQ.

A menu entry is a button in a menu... And yes, that's why I said it could easily be a keyboard binding instead. That way it's designed for the people that actually know how to use it.

Pretty sure ctrl+c is copy clean link by default in Brave already if you are copying from the url bar, so they could just copy that. But you want to copy a link that isn't in the url bar, then you have to right click and click the clean link option. Given some links are just text that also is a hyperlink, so it still needs to be a menu option imo so you can copy clean links without opening the link with trackers first.
