The engineering managers get directed by corporate executives to implement a feature like this. If the engineering manager resists or protests they won't be meeting there kpi target. there are plenty of other people to fill the role.
A feature like this can get approval to be worked on, but what’s harder to defend is spending money on it every quarter when there won’t be any tangible benefit to point towards.
Google will get bored and move on to the next shiny thing to juice revenues.
