But if you implement something in your browser that allows websites to block anything that isn't an accepted browser (and websites use it because they don't want their precious data to feed random AIs) you effectively prevent any potential competition from crawling websites to build a search index that might threaten your position.

This is what I meant, if everyone is running googles web integrity API it also effectively allows google to ban other browsers from even existing by denying them access to all major sites.
