Not really no.
Kagi has vastly more features. Most are extremely useful. Including privacy.
And the whole “funding a bigot” complaint strikes me as kind of silly. The “partnership” is just them using the Brave search API, no different than they do Google, Bing, and a few others. I even have Brave as one of my sanity check browsers when something doesn’t work on Firefox.
It’s silly to try to avoid doing anything that may, in some way support a bigot. They are literally everywhere. Even Gandhi was racist.
It’s just the payment info, not the searches. And since their users are their only revenue source, because they aren’t selling ads, they have no reason to save searches.
You might think that under capitalism or something, animal cruelty might be a huge problem too, but I doubt you would buy bullets with the express intent of shooting dogs. (I hope.)
This seems like a non-sequitur. I don’t understand your point here.
Here’s the section for the wikipedia article you mentioned in your comment:

In 2017, Beale launched Infogalactic, an English-language wiki encyclopedia. The site was a fork of the contents of English Wikipedia which could be gradually edited to remove the influence of what Beale described as “the left-wing thought police who administer [Wikipedia]”. It has been described by Wired and The Washington Post as a version of Wikipedia targeted to alt-right readers.
That’s why I like Kagi. I do almost anything to avoid ads

Privacy doesn’t exist without the ability to compile and self host.

I did. Didn’t find anything about the “funding a bigot” part specifically. So what’s the deal with the whole “funding a bigot” thing?
