If people want the games they will not return them, right?  And how
hard is it to, I don't know, mirror the normal game board layout
occasionally, or vary the number and location of powerups, add some
gameplay configuration options, or whatever?  Anything to make the
gameplay different enough that it's still interesting several days
later.

I think the return policy has both good and bad aspects, but is mostly
a win for everyone but developers wanting money for something lame.
But it needs to be paired with a working checkout system, copy
protection, etc. which so far Google has failed to provide.
