Research direction
Start by reproducing the RP2040 pairing flow from Connect Device in Chromium 96 on Ubuntu 20.04, then compare it with Brave's pairing and UF2 download behavior. Done means the RP2040 can be selected and paired in Chromium, and downloading code completes without requiring manual UF2 copying.
