I think the point is that average people wouldn't know how to get an ad blocker, but would notice the massive perf benefits of having one.
A browser whose entire focus is on adblocking is therefore exactly what they would appreciate: out of the box, it works great.
Of course for us tech people here, installing an ad blocker is easy, so it seems a little silly. But we are a tiny fraction of the market.
