I'm family of myself which is why I also disable push notifications always. Thankfully Apple does the right thing and doesn's support them at all.

Wouldn’t it be better if ios could control notifications on both global and per-site basis?
That's what all browsers do and i'm sure mobile safari will do it too once the feature arrives.
As long as the default is to globally block and that enabling for a single site is as cumbersome as possible, that's okay.
Personally I’d like to run a server that could send notifications to me and to other people who would like to join this party. It is a valid use case and making it as cumbersome as possible feels wrong (depending on what it means of course).

Though I agree that it would be good to not turn it on by ok-clicking like our parents always do. “aA -> turn on” would be enough, popups definitely banned.

Thankfully Apple does the right thing and doesn't allow anyone to use knives in their kitchen
