Cookie banners is not a policy, it is used to work around a policy, and often implemented incorrectly. GPDR says you need to be given a specific informed decision, but often cookie banners show a big green approve button, and a less positive deny button (if that is even the case). When the law is being enforced better (Which is slowly happening) those cookie banners should get 2 the same looking buttons, and that would result in more denies. Hopefully, companies would realize that they need to solve their marketing differently.

More like big green approve button vs.

"Configure my preferences" -> Untick all the things -> Make sure you click the almost invisible Save button and not accidentally click the big green "Allow All" button.

Horrible. If we can force websites to do this, we should be able to force websites to read my request header NoDamnTrackingCookiesFfs

Probably worth noting that this practice is illegal in the EU. Saying no should be just as easy as saying yes.

However they are very bad at enforcing it, sadly.
