You are wrong.

True.

Not really true, no. The tense is wrong. It is not correct to say 
"Google WILL support". Chrome _already_ supports v3; the new spec dates 
back about 8 years now.

This is categorically false.  No it has not.

This is a fake site. It is not associated with µBlock Origin.

This is the real site:

https://github.com/gorhill/ublock

If you view the .com site from a browser with uBO or uBO Lite it inserts 
a bright red banner reading

**This is not the official uBlock Origin site**

If you do not see this then it means that you are not running uBO yourself.

UBlock Origin **Lite** is a Mv3 addon. The original and full uBO is a 
Mv2 addon.

The developer Ray Gorham explains the difference here:
