If the only reason Google have banned this from the Web Store is because it violates the Single Purpose Policy (https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/single_purpose) - i.e. Blocking AND Clicking Ads, then an interesting test would be to split the extension in 2 - One extension to block all ads on the page, and one extension to click all ads on the page. And then see if they are then both accepted into the store. And as this is a fork of uBlock, you don't really need the first extension - Why don't they just develop an extension whose single purpose is to click all ads on a page and recommend users also install uBlock?

Automated clicking on ads is a click fraud. It will never be accepted by Google.

Automate clicking on the ads by the website owner is click fraud. This isn't click fraud because the consumers never agreed to anything.

Doesn't mean Google will accept it, obviously.
