Not quite. It's about respecting the opportunity of Google to make money.
Nobody cares about "changing the industry" if it doesn't "move the needle". And in the end, the needle is neither the number of users, nor the positive impact of the project.
That's just an incorrect framing, what I described is at least the corporate overlords wanted to portray. FWIW I have friends who work for Google.
