Widely disputed.

If this really did prevent ad blocking no one would expect it to ship. Inside the bundle are the same resources as without a bundle.

Same resources with the same URLs, access with the same request/response pipeline that's just as visible to blockers. If you can change URLs in the bundle, you can change them outside the bundle.

UAs are also completely free to request a resource from the URL rather than the bundle.
