I think that's the whole point - for Google to chime in on cable quality so that customers know what to buy for their Google devices. I'm guessing that Google saw that a large percentage of their customer support issues were caused by poor cable quality, and that most of their customers bought their cable from Amazon. This seems like a way for Google to pre-empt that customer support cost by making sure their customers are buying cables that they know are good. Most of the time other companies hand-wave their way around this problem by offering 1st-party cables (usually at a fairly high price).
