Glass is half empty, I see.

How about GSB stopped 16% of phishing sites? that's still huge.

Would you use anything that was only 16% effective for its claimed purpose?

“Tylenol stops headaches in 16% of people” - it’s huge, right? That’s millions of people we’re talking about.

Would you use it?

99% of users don't even know they're being protected. There's no promise except "we work to make browsing safer" and cutting even 5% of malicious sites from a user's experience is an unmitigated win for that user at the low false positive rate Safe Browsing offers.

If the other options would just straight up kill innocent bystanders (e.g. false positives for legit shops) I think that is a tradeoff I am willing to make.

Countless medications have <16% efficacy rate.

I guess the glass is 16% full.
