I may be misunderstanding your comment, but what exactly is the benefit? Advertising websites can just switch to the new API to achieve autoplay audio, meanwhile all old sites will have a poor user experience as they will require additional browser UI and popups to use.

The new API doesn't autoplay. The old API did. Changing the old API is what's breaking everything. So, if the old API blocks the page that page is still accessible. Click "Ok" and it's unblocked. If the page is using the new API then it doesn't get blocked but it also doesn't autoplay
