Why does it need OIS if its EIS produces a stabilized image better than anyone else's image stabilization?
The feature is image stabilization - whether or not it's done optically or electronically is irrelevant, all that matters is how good the end product is. And DXO's review claims that the image stabilization in Pixel is superb.

- Someone1234 10y agoYour link only talks about video stabilisation, it doesn't appear to even try and examine still image stabilisation and if it is superior to OIS as you claim. Do you have a link that supports the claims made above? That one simply does not.

Yes it does, but it'd be under "blurry photos" description rather than stabilization because stabilization is more inherently a video issue than a photo one. In the case of OIS and photos you want to look at the low-light performance, which DXO did test and the Pixel did do very well on.
