It costs them more to do fraud and abuse prevention than to run a customer support system that happens to hook into google3 (because that's what it is - if you click 'remove result' it just puts it in a queue for review. The privacy portal at myactivity.google.com/results-about-you is just a way to check on the status of your removals).
