These aren't mutually exclusive. PubMed solved this ages ago: if it was freely available, it was tagged accordingly, and you could filter your search results that way.
If this were meant to benefit users, it would be an optional filter at the discretion of the user, not a built-in "feature" of the algo.

But they might do it if they thought doing so would cause more people to use their their search engine more, thereby generating more ad clicks. I know I probably would, but otoh I’m probably not their target demo (since I only click about 7 ads per year, usually after coming home drunk from some event).

(https://www.google.com/intl/en/about/ https://www.google.com/intl/en/about/ according to Google search today, although I can't see that text in the throng of large images.) Needs tweaked, that 'universally' is now melting away. Must be the water heating up, as the frog didn't say. Croak.
