Were you not aware that almost every app on the play store is a limited licence? Like, you can’t move over to Windows and expect the license to carry over by default. You don’t pay for an app on Google’s store and automatically get it on iOS as well.
What you wanted would have required rebuilding the app to not use play services to verify that it was paid for. While it would be nice if a developer does that, exhibition expecting it to be the default approaches absurdity when it is most definitely not the norm.
You making the decision to degoogle is great, but that’s your choice. Expecting a developer to bend over backwards and rewrite part of their app for that is just silly. It’s fine to ask, nothing wrong there, but calling someone greedy because they said no? That’s not cool at all.
The Play Store maintains your list of purchases. The dev would have had to build a new APK just for you with ads disabled.
On top of that, the APK wouldn’t be tied to you, so you could distribute it to others, possibly preventing sales. I’m sure you wouldn’t do that, but others might.
So yeah, it’s possible. But it’s reasonable for the dev to say no.
I am aware that the APK is the same. BUT if he sent you the APK without changes, your purchases would not be activated because you refuse to use Google. In order to restore them, he’d have to manually enable them for you. Use your head.

I’m confused.

Try that with any other software.
Tell EA you want to move your games from origin to steam.
Tell steam you want to move your games from steam to gog.
Tell gog you want to move your games to steam.
All of them will laugh at you.

You’re a troll. Gimme a second while I find the block user button in Sync.
Which I’m not a fanboy of, btw, I’m waiting for Boost.
Oh there it is! See you never!

He would still have to build an APK without ads just for you.

Your subscription is tied to Google. He would have to tear out the check for a subscription since you refuse to use the typical system.
Hence, he’d have to produce a build specifically for you without that code. This isn’t rocket science.
