yup, I'd pay Apple an additional 20% per iPhone if they promise never to implement this horrible shit for website devs to endlessly badger users about to the end of time.

Why do you have such little faith in Apple?

Apple's not going to just drop in a change that makes you go through popup and notification hell.

I'm 100% certain Apple would give users control to enable or disable features on a per site/pwa basis.

As long as the feature doesn't exist, people have to make websites that work without it. As soon as it does, people will instead switch to obnoxious interstitial screens telling and/or insisting that you enable push notifications or whatever to continue using the thing.
