Don't yell.

1. Explain a specific use case that the new API can't handle (including a technical explanation of _why_ it can't handle that use-case)

The maximum number of rules is 30k, which will break HTTPSEverywhere (I'm assuming you don't need that explained).

Suggest constructive changes to manifest V3's API that will improve its capabilities _while still adhering to the stated goals of manifest V3_

If Google wants me to do work, they can pay me.

There was a time in the past when Google would have deserved the benefit of the doubt with changes like these. That time is long, long gone.
