yeah but for me privacy badger is on because it comes from the eff who I trust highly. I don't know enough about ublock to care to put it on. If I was not doing privacy badger I would replace it with nothing.

Well both projects are open source, so your reasoning for trusting privacy badger more doesn't really make any sense.

The code is auditable, and uBlock is the most popular and developed open source ad-blocker. What organizations happen to support / recommend them does not matter.

Well it does not make sense to someone who does not think philosophy matters. I have nothing against ublock and of course its methodology is a preference but eff is an organization whos philosophy I agree with.
