You may well be right that this is Google’s current thinking, but it doesn’t look like a winning strategy to me. Once more, they are on the defensive trying to offer flailing justifications for an opportunistic initial move. Even if you don’t care about the ethics, or are on their side, I think you’d have to question their execution.
