It's not Google paying that, it's the advertisers paying it. Google isn't just giving away their money.

...yes, so google desperately needs those advertisers to advertise. And if they stop, their content stops existing. So yeah Google has to stop ad block. Otherwise who's going to make anything for YouTube?

*Edit as you said

Google isn’t just giving away their money.

So they need advertisers to give out that money or they have no one posting videos.

Unless you think Google will just start giving out money.

I'm sorry but your "arguments" become more and more nonsensical.
