@brave/legacy_qa as discussed with @bsclifton, the full verifications were done on Nightly on Win via https://github.com/brave/brave-core/pull/10326#issuecomment-939699830 before uplifting the Brave Search work into 1.31.x. So in interest of time, we can just run through ~two of the locales when running through verifications rather than checking all five of the locales (CA / DE / FR / GB / US).
