I do not understand what you mean with "No problem as long as it's available elsewhere". Are you implying that we should just treat Google's decisions as inscrutable facts of nature that we must accept with resignation, and just be glad that the extension is still available somewhere?

Perhaps. Because Google is not Apple and does not prevent us from side-loading anything, still gives us a great browser and a great OS for free. In fact we, the advanced privacy-concerned users, are not interested in such extensions being on the store front and becoming too popular. Let Google use simple methods to track people who don't care about being tracked (many people who I tell about tracking really don't care, they say I'm a paranoid weirdo complicating things instead of just using them the way everybody does) enough to find a workaround. When AdBlock was only used by a bunch of superusers nobody cared to counter it, everybody was happy.

  If "everybody was happy", its userbase wouldn't have grown.
