As much as we can criticise Google's handling of this situation, the fact that the developer was able to reduce permissions from accessing data on _all websites_ down to _their website_, as well as tighten up a few other permissions, shows that Google is correct that the extension is asking for more than it needs.
I hope the developer finds another load of permissions they can tighten up, resubmits, and is approved. As long as it results in permissions being more correct this is a very positive thing for users because for every PushBullet there's hundreds of attempts at malicious Chrome extensions that are abusing permissions.
