From an economics perspective it seems like a more viable approach. Most of the techniques considered state of the art now are likely easily detectable by Google and other ad tech companies - they have a very good idea of which data can be safely discarded. Rather than blocking Google Analytics I wonder what would happen if browsers started responding with garbage.

Couldn't agree more. It's a far better approach as a cloaking technique. Reason I use privacy-possum addon on Firefox.
