Ah true. Companies are great at hiding the open web that they (ab)use.

Otoh, Spotify (and probably apple and other big corps) don't even allow you to add RSS URLs, so I wanted to point out they Google was one of the big players which was more open.

Actually Apple does allow it, but yeah, Spotify is a bad citizen here. I only used Google Podcasts once or twice, but good on them for giving the option. At least for as long as they were around.
