IMO, They serve different purposes. A resume is a showcase of your skills with the goal of increasing your perceived value as a prospective hire. This brag doc is more an achievements history and I think is more suited for promotion justification and annual reviews. There are a lot of details on a brag doc that I wouldn't put on a resume because they are hard to appreciate without context.
