Google and most companies policies in case of child sexual abuse is to nuke everything from orbit. Anything related is not worth the risk from their perspective that abuse or sharing of abusive imagery continues. They do NOT want to be hauled into court to explain why they banned a pedo's main account but didn't ban their alt account which they continued to use to abuse kids.

It is out of an abundance of caution.

Even if every single one of them was a paying Google subscriber to the tune of $20/mo it wouldn't likely be worth the risks in terms of cost/benefit analysis from Google's point of view.

Yeah and now the parents can't go back and see whether the fucking LLM might have encouraged the kid. It's a win for everyone.
