I wouldn't worry about the impact of AdSense regarding Bourbon.

I'm still worried that there seems to be some kind of correlation between my site's woes and my use of AdSense, and in particular my use of alternate ads. Google DOES index pages which are used as AdSense alternate ads and which appear nowhere else...

Is there any way to stop Google following and indexing AdSense alternate_ad URLs? I'd put "NOFOLLOW" on them, but I can't because they are embedded in the AdSense code as
google_alternate_ad_url = "http://example.com/";
