It’s a two-dialog process (allow website to use external protocol & what external program should be used for this protocol), with intentionally confusing wording making it easy to choose the wrong choice (disallow) if you don’t read thoroughly.

Unless you already know what to do it’s fairly unintuitive.

Most users don’t even know the difference between a single click and a double click.

Expecting them to even know what an external protocol is, or why it should be launched at all is completely unreasonable.
