You haven’t limited access to the page via the Public access settings. If you select either “Disable new downloads & purchases” or “Unlisted in search & browse” then you are opting out of being eligible for indexing.
So you have conflicting documentation, and I would say arguably an edge case failure, where web only games should be able to disable downloads and purchases and still be indexed. We know that playing in the browser is != downloading because "disable downloads and purchases" active did not stop users from playing in the browser.
@leafo you have bent over backwards to explain why I was wrong, perhaps look to your own system and see what does not make sense.
Perhaps a banner at the top of the page of pages that aren't getting indexed that have a link to why they are not being indexed. That way its not a guessing game, we can see a non-indexed state.
