What I would call "cut and clear" would be a specific description of how prominent the decline button must be. "Inertia, inattention, or default bias" is a very nonspecific phrase, and even if it does include UI, it's not obvious why the implied standard would be "as prominent" rather than, say, 50% as prominent.

Don't get me wrong, I'd really like companies to design this way on principles of general user friendliness, but I don't see much evidence that anyone involved in creating the GDPR intended to require it.
