Google basically says "Trust us". What a joke.

It would be difficult. Your operating system, the browser, and the website's code would have to be compliant to pass the WEI check

Let's say you use a non-compliant OS (linux), or a non-chromium browser, or use userscripts, in all three cases you are locked out of the website.
