Googles interest is block and move on. It is not in their interest to have a person look at a case like this.

But then they have fewer ad impressions to sell. That said, since their system is an auction, some level of scarcity does potentially increase their revenue. Maybe they've done that calculation and figured out that they wanted to dump some of their inventory.

To pay for the 15 minutes it would take a person to look at this issue and fix it they’d need a lot of impressions. Far more than they lose by just blocking the site.
