> You can A/B test ads pretty easily

A/B testing ads is a complex matter. you can A/B traffic and conversion easily, but a lot of established companies with fierce competition fight for mind share, not direct conversion; for that, you have both awareness effects (user won't forget about coca cola if they don't run ads for a month, and an ad that doesn't directly convert but increase awareness still has value) and coverage synergies (the number of repetitions in a day will increase coverage non linearly and the amount of channel repetitions will increase awareness more than a single channel view, even if it doesn't convert immediately)
