Let me know when Android base OS has ads in the UI.

If the largest advertising company on the planet isn’t making it part of the base operating system — then that should tell you something, don’t you think?

Does the vanilla OS even run on any phones? To my knowledge a large part of the system functionality is implemented through google play services which isn't open source (and that's presumably why it's not part of the base system).
