And the counterargument is that it is responsibility of websites to ask for consent because they are the ones collecting and controlling the data, not the browsers. Browsers can send DNT and whatever headers all they want. It is websites that should respect them and abide to them. "Targeting browsers" is pointless.

Well, there's little for websites to respect if we don't ensure popular commercial browsers have the capability to send the necessary headers, and that these headers actually reflect user choices, even if the corporations behind them don't want to. So it's not pointless at all. It's rather quite an important half of the equation. How is it going to work at all without that?
