I still don't understand. Are those countries not the Seller countries? If
they are the Seller countries, then the example is still very relevant.

It says it will do that for the following countries:

US isn't one of them.
It is indeed an ambiguous communication, no surprise there. But for
most US states there is no tax on downloaded software ... so far. If
small developers have to actually be responsible for taxes then they
would need to raise their prices at least tenfold to cover the cost of a
firm to do that. It would drive away users from Google Play to other
stores like Amazon where they take care of any sales/VAT taxes for the
developer but then they are technically the seller anyway (and I think
Google is too). Most software developers aren't accountants.
