The issue with this is that ublock origin had been so heavily optimized at this point
Manifest v3 means that every block rule now has to go through the declarativeNetRequest API, meaning that the browser itself decides on whether it will block something or not, so if Google one day decides they don't like a specific rule they can just stop allowing it through.
They also have hard rules on the amount of blocking rules that an extension can ship with.
They took away the control extensions used to have so adblockers using Manifest v3 will be slower and simply not work as well.
Thankfully people pushed back and some of the decisions that they wanted to go with were changed because of all the backlash they were getting but they still pushed the rest of the Manifest v3 shit on everyone.
There's a reason this is called lite.
