I honestly don't know what sites you are visiting where ad blocking is such a problem. I guess I'd seen an odd clone of KAT and other torrenting sites that do this shit. It's annoying, I agree. But in my daily life I rarely encounter an ad that slips by my ad blocker that makes me drop everything I am doing to go digging into how to kill it. On the contrary, I find my ad blocker more annoying sometimes in the other direction where my bank's site doesn't work and I have to disable it to get the site to e.g. show me my balance or make a credit card payment. I don't see how the savings in time will add up over a lifetime.
Even without special extensions and keyboard shortcuts you spend very little time on fiddling with menus. It seems like a lot only at the beginning and quickly gets to near no fiddling at all. But it also saves time on various things, like when your adblocker doesn't catch something and you have to close those clickunder born popups or see a page full of ads where it's hard to even find the content, things also load faster and so on.
My only problem without javascript is cloudflare. They truly are sabotaging it, giving impossible to solve captchas for example.
