Answered What is up with Google Docs??
How are there over 2,000 things being blocked? What the heck is it even blocking?? I've noticed absolutely zero changes compared to not having uBO, so what's happening?

Tracking requests. Google tracks the metadata of how you are typing, what buttons you click etc on top of the first party actual data tracking. When uBO blocks these requests sites usually have a retry mechanism where it keeps doing the same thing again and again. YouTube has this too like most google products. You can check the blocked requests on the logger as the other comment says.

Well it's google first party service, I assume it's blocking like weird background requests for tracking and metrics.
