That Safari doesn't ship with an ad blocker, indeed, that was the point, and it never will.
And its content blocking, speaking both as a user and as somebody that worked on anti-ad-blocking technology, is really easy to circumvent and only useful on websites that haven't adapted yet.
As an iPhone user for me it's bad enough to make me want to switch to Android. What works consistently well has been DNS-level blocking (Pi-hole, NextDNS).
For you it might be OK, but I can tell you Safari is a favorite among the big players in this space [1].
