You are complaining that the allergens information takes room on your restaurant menu.

We the people, through our democratic processes, have asked companies for transparency of their tracking process, the industry have decided as a whole to say fuck off and made the process as painful as possible.

Yes, the companies are evil/stupid villains on this case. Not everything needs bloody philosophy.

Who is "we" though? I certainly had no part in a European democratic process that led to these laws but I still have to get nagged by popups every day.
Practically everyone tracks. Not practically everyone prepares food in a facility that also handles shellfish, etc. It's not philosophical that op reports (being sick of) clicking cookie banner ads in each site they visit. It's not even surprising empirically.
