ETH swap from Wallet botched, out of gas, over $100 fee never refunded

[XfeRecover]

Description

Yesterday I did my first swap with the new integrated Brave wallet, from ETH to USDC. The quoted fee was outrageous ($130), but that's not Brave's fault.

The problem is that the transfer ran "out of gas". Here is the tx.

I don't see any way in Brave to complete or speed up the transfer.

Brave didn't warn me about the possibility of insufficient gas. This issue cost me $121 (as of today). In my country, that is food for two weeks.

I'm not a super-technical user, so I don't really understand all the inner workings of gas. If this occurrence is likely, there should be a big red warning before users attempt swaps (or presumably transfers as well).

I would also appreciate a refund of the fee.

As you can imagine, I won't attempt to reproduce this.
