There's no reason they couldn't allow add-ons to do it: but instead with manifest v3 I think it is impossible to do it in a general way isn't it? Like with the other ad-blocking you have to have a hardcoded number of rules you can define for blocking cookies in the requests as well, at least through the declarativeNetRequest API.
Maybe it is possible for through one of the cookies APIs, but the cookie's API has race conditions where the site can still sometimes see them from what I understand and redirects can activate before your extension gets a chance to respond.
And then of course extensions don't even run on mobile and that isn't an accident.
