WEI has a lot of issues and should not ever be implemented, but it’s not going to stop you from using ad blockers, nor could it be made to do so.

Not directly, but indirectly it can. By simply just blocking browsers that allow meaningful ad blocking. And not just ad blocking, but it can be applied to any kinds of user-side modifications.
