Yes, exactly, Android's market share in and of itself is irrelevant to Google, it's only relevant when considering other products. If Google didn't have web search and ads, then Android's marketshare would be existential, but as it is, Android exists mostly to reduce TAC costs for other products. If they could eliminate TAC in some cheaper way than developing a whole OS they'd do it.
