I expect commercial enterprises not to be allowed to engage in anti-competitive and consumer-hostile behavior. Like it or not and regardless of their contributions to tech/the web Google is notorious for pulling the rug out from under open industry standards only to replace them with their own proprietary or, as you described, "standards" that are so complex it's more or less impossible to implement so you're "forced" to use/buy their product.
They will be as anti-competitive and as consumer hostile as they can get away with. Adding and removing features from the standard is so ambiguously motivated that I almost can't imagine them being successfully prosecuted for it. In a way it's pretty clever.
Nobody is going to do things you agree with all the time. That doesn't mean everything they do should be condemned by default, without thorough investigation into their motives.
