I mean, they are hobbled. If you think of it like a malware scanner, it's the equivalent of taking away all heuristics and relying solely on big lists of payload checksums or "bad words".

Otoh, with full permissions it can still do things like hide ads that aren't blocked by the declaritive rules. But, to continue the analogy, that's like killing a process after it's doing malicious stuff instead of preventing it from running in the first place.
