I don't get what you're arguing for.
The default state should be DNT. Actually, using cookies for tracking, or any kind of fingerprinting for that matter, should be opt-in. The only reason it was opt-out is because adtech runs the web, and EU lawmakers are technically illiterate and influenced by the same tech giants they're supposed to regulate.
So there are two things here: making a browser setting opt-in, and making it actually enforceable. The DNT header was a step in the right direction that got swallowed by corporate influence.
