Why would Ebay want that?

Paypal protection by hurting their online pay competitors that support gambling.

I don't think this is true. It is more likely that Ebay realizes that people are spending a lot of petty cash on gambling. If there's no gambling, people would be more likely to spend idle, sitting around the house on the internet money on auctions.
having your competitors' customers prosecuted would be an odd competitive strategy.

It absolutely is true. Neteller has blown up because Paypal refuses to allow gambling transactions. It takes away the largest market for their main competition, why would that make anything but sense?
