If you actually read the support page you linked and understand what Hulu offers, its still an "ad free" Hulu service for 12.99. For almost all of the limited cases where ads do occur, its due to it being an optional external streaming service integration or "live" TV channel with their own app offering that Hulu are offering as an optional extra you can bundle in (for more $$). I can't criticise Hulu too hard for not controlling ads on live television or optional third party services you can integrate to their own app - these are almost all optional extra channels/streaming services and not part of Hulu's own shows or offering. Almost every single streaming show from Hulu themselves without exceptions is ad-free on the 12.99 plan, exactly as the plan name says. In addition to understanding the support page, I use the service and the no-ad plan almost every day in my own home, it's definitely a thing and works exactly as its name (no ads!) suggests. Its probably why it's called the "no ads" plan...
