Let's not pretend the real reason google isn't so gung-ho about https everywhere is to prevent the ISPs from muscling into their businesses:

* ads on page

* seeing all internet traffic to enhance targeting

You make it sound like this is a bad thing. Regardless of if it also benefits Google's business model, both of these things benefit users and website owners. The only thing that benefits from injecting ads into a page or deeper ISP tracking is some ISP executive's bonus.
