Yes, it is about ads and cookies, but also a whole lot more.
With this, Google can bring us into the 21st century all based on standards and open source. Microsoft wants to keep the browser in the 20th century, so that you have to turn to Windows OS features for rich interactive, 21st century type of features. Microsoft is desperate to keep us locked to Windows proprietary APIs, protocols, and file formats. Without that, the whole reason to pay a premium to MS for OSes and Office Suites goes away, and the house of cards falls down.

This is what it is all about. Blocking MS from making Web 2.0 depend on Microsoft proprietary APIs, protocols, and file formats. Because if MS has all of that control, they can also screw up all of Google's advertising models. Of course that is in addition to preventing MS from sucking billions out of the economy for shoddy software.
