With Google's new API, all ads can still be blocked. There will be a limit for network request blocking rules, but it's very high so that normal users don't reach it. And for those that reach it, only network requests are affected, so adblockers can still use other APIs to hide the ads.

This is the first time I’ve heard the suggestion that there are ways around this by using other API’s. Can you elaborate?

You can use other APIs to hide ads (i.e. prevent them from being displayed), but they would still be downloaded so you lose the privacy, performance and security benefits of the ad blocker.
