The cookie banners are the way they are because they comply with the law, so you can not say "you follow the law in a wrong way", except for these banners which do not allow to reject cookies as easy as to accept them, the banners comply with the law so you can not blame site owners.
Instead, the law and requirements should be adjusted to make the horror of cookie banners stop.
I never could understand who thought asking website owners to get your consent is a good idea. Think of when you are installing an app on your phone, is it the app asks permission to use your location or your OS? Access to cookie storage is the same, a browser should allow or not allow webpage to store something on your device. Same as most of the browsers do for notifications btw.
Fixing ~200 browsers is much easier than fixing millions of the websites, you can also setup default preference, you can also have a clear, unbiased UI.
