Given browser headers have existed for a long time, does anyone know why there isn't some protocol of your browser saying "give me all the cookies", "give me only essential cookies" or "give me all cookies except trackibgbones" etc? Instead if tedious and manual banners on every website?

I get why companies might not want this (less cookie acceptance) but they didn't want cookies to require consent either and the EU enforced that. How come no move to require support for a protocol like this?
