>but I don't think it's about any real safety concern or anything beyond just "we are not sure we cannot break the law on privacy and data collection/advertising with our AI...so we are going to pretend we are trying", and this just seems like it's Meta just stopping the pretending, but naturally just my opinion which is open to change.

Read more carefully. I literally said Meta does not give a shit. We are in agreement on this.

The difference between us, is I don't give a shit either. I agree with metas hidden stance on this.
