Why is better to fix adblocking capabilities at model that is borderline insufficient now let alone in 10 years.
There is arms race and you want adblockers (good guys) to give up any improvements in perpetuity, that is a recipe for losing.
Me installing uBlock for parents has improved their browser experience and security. I'd rather risk uBlock being compromised and having to phone them to uninstall it than have them being at the mercy of adtech, spyware, and scammers companies in 5 years.
