I came here to ask about that line.

Is that user flow described actually a requirement somehow, or is that just an "ideal scenario"? Cause right after that it says "If you’ve already implemented Web Push for your web app or website using industry best practices, it will automatically work in Safari" and existing implementations don't require a button press that they used in their example. Facebook just pops up the browser prompts to allow or block as soon as you visit the page, as do many news sites and other stuff I don't want notifications from.

Maybe the "using industry best practices" part is key, and they somehow will block implementations like Facebook.

It should be a browser-level option to just turn it ON.
