afaik it doesnt spoof the user-agent (which doesnt really hide your browser for more advanced scripts at all), but simply blocks the script responsible for checking.

Because Google apparently cannot afford to do such checks in the backend, same with the Ads, all Client-Side, no wonder we can easily bypass it.
