I don't need any MV2 extension, so I don't really care.

So, you're fine with the ads and tracking.

Brave has built in ad / tracking blocking without using MV2. If MV2 vanished in Brave you could still have blocking without using uBlock Origin

Almost nobody cares about anything other than ad blocking and to top it off the reply to the comment you linked is even mentioning that they were only talking about ad block...

Besides, using that together with a DNS blocker does a wonderful job, whether you believe it or not.

The discontinued support of MV2 means that all ads will eventually adapt and your anti-ad measures stop working.

I think you don't understand the difference between an extension (for which manifest version matters) and an intrinsic feature (for which the manifest means nothing). It's either that, or you want to convince people that FF the only way. No, it isn't. Deal with it.
