The only disadvantage, if one could call it that, is that uBlock Origin does not have a version for Safari, which uBlock has. I have read a bit about the controversies between uBlock Origin vs. uBlock. I prefer uBlock Origin wherever available.

uBlock 0.9.5.2 is available for Safari. It looks an awful lot like µBlock Origin on Chrome.

I know uBlock has a version for Safari, which I mentioned in my comment. However, uBlock Origin does not, which I also mentioned. Is there something unclear about what I said above?

Both uBlock Origin and uBlock have similar code bases because they were "born" from the original uBlock (now called uBlock Origin).

Probably that there's a difference between uBlock and uBlock Origin.
