Other than 11 vs 10 speed, what are the other differences between the Shimano GRX RX400 and RX600 groupsets? Are the brakes basically the same?

Looks like they are making some distinction on the brakes.

Thanks, looking at the Shimano web link, I don’t see the distinction.

Brakes are all the same across 400-600-800.

I'm not seeing it either and recall reading they were just "rebranded" flat mount road calipers like Ultegra.
