Except that many modern web modalities only "work" if there is a cookie to tell them the state of your session with respect to the current display. (Think displaying page 7 of 10 pages of results for example) Too many people were using this as a way to get a blanket acceptance of cookies, which not only included specific state to make the web site work, but other tracking cookies. What I see when I read this ruling is that you can't bundle the two. You have to allow the user to say "No, I don't consent to any cookies that provide PII." and then stop using them.
