In theory Google could send the Do Not Track header to notify people they shouldn't track, but very few sites honor that (and Google Analytics certainly doesn't).

Why should it, it doesn't "track" you, it only notes vague details and aggregates visitor statistics.
And in practice it's just another bit of entropy to identify you.
If everyone in incognito sends that, it's probably very close to 0 bits.
