For now. I would point out that the browser with the largest market share by a considerable margin is created and developed by a company that makes most of its money by selling ads, and that choosing your own DNS server with the capability of blocking those ads is a direct threat to that revenue model.

They will tell you it is to defeat censorship though and to improve network resilience, because they are deeply committed to having the image of being a champion of internet freedom.

They don't need DoH to stop you from being able to block ads at the network level. For a while, a lot of sites have been proxying their ads through their own domains to do that.

And besides, every browser that supports DoH also lets you pick what server to use, and adblocking DoH servers exist.
