If "Automatically redirect .onion site" is toggled on in settings and you visit brave.com in a normal or private window, a Tor window is opened and automatically navigated to the onion site for Brave. If you do this in a guest window, you get the "Open in Tor" option in the URL bar, you are not automatically navigated.
The setting of guest window is different than regular profile, so the setting you just changed doesn't affect guest window. You can open settings page from guest window and we don't expose the auto redirect onion setting to guest window
