When I look at the logger of uBlockOrigin, I see no scripts running, while the result page tells me ads.js, pagead.js and partner.ads.js are running, so I would not waist any energy in trying to get a better score

I don't buy into any of these tests. The best test is how web pages appear to individual users. Everyone's browsing habits are different. The tests have extremely limited value and many unkowns , e.g. coding, methodology, etc.The test was flawed according to makers of uBlock Origin and AdGuard.
I don't know of anything has changed with the new test.
There is a FAQ and a Compatibility Check on the main page:
Adding his filter in uBlock Origin gives me 100%, but adding his filter in AdGuard for Android only gives 77%.

microsoft edge Without any extension but in Settings:
And from flags:
Just add the VIE block filter at the very bottom of the uBO filter config page.Even µBO Hard mode can't stop that junk. I felt like I was on LSD looking at that site!

I tend to agree. We can get things so dialed in and so tight, that we may lose the functionality and even fun? of a webpage and may end up in doing too much fiddling around with unblocking, allowing settings etc. But still, it is kinda fun to see what does what, and what others are getting
I'm enjoying this thread

To some extent, this supports my point above.

And of course, we really don't know what the experiment entails, if or when it's active, i.e. doing anything, or what type of imrovement it provides. Thanks as usual to MS lack of documentation.And from flags:

Edge (balanced), ublock, ddg, privacy badger, F-Secure 19.0, Mullvad. 100% but the site @Evjl's Rain suggested is full of ads, gifs mentioned I assume.

Adguard desktop on default settings is best you can get, no need to add any filters to be honest. Dont believe test results
these tests are still valuable
if you get 100% in all tests but you still get some ads in your frequently visited websites -> still fail
if you get 100% and zero ads or trackers in your websites -> big success

Instead of visiting a questionable so called test site, I use for evaluating blocking extensions and filterlists WhoTracks.me - Bringing Transparency to Online Tracking to find real world tracking sites. The only worry can be that the site belongs to Ghostery. It doesn't take away that Ghostery does a remarkable job in ad- and trackerblocking. View Adblocking innovation

Totally agree with you. And they allow users to disable the telemetry, etc. This is why @upnorth uses it and tracks their releases on the forum.
