Guess your just ignorant to the fact that not everyone is as smart or knowlegable as you. One click install compared to flashing custom firmware on router or spending money to get a preflashed one just to not know how to set it up... or for a phone, dns blockers are finicky and break things and again not everyone knows how to troubleshoot it... choice is simple.
How is it productive to ignore those other vectors when it comes to safeguarding your privacy?
AFAIR, no one is saying ignore those vectors. Tackling one vector out of two is better than tackling none, in particular if you can do it at a privilege level that does not require authorization from the very people you are fighting against, or those who serve them (let's see you eg.: ask your school to block Google Ads).
The question for me is if Privacy Badger does something that uBlock Origin doesn't

Maybe not as simple as a one click install, but you can block things at DNS level using your hosts file
That is much harder than click ublock origin install and use default blocking with no other setup required.
Which, if you are on Windows, Microsoft can also undo in one touch. And even editing the hosts file requires special privs.

Depends on how many blocklists you added.
