The fix here would be to legally force them to comply with Do Not Track instead of forcing them to post compliant banners

They are not forced to use banners, they are forced to get explicit opt-in permission before tracking users, which can be done in non-obtrusive ways.

Okay, so regard the Do_Not_Track header as explicit opt-out permission

No browser implements it as an explicit one where you have to explicitly specify which businesses you do not which to track you.

They would never do this willingly, because they don't want you to automatically opt out of tracking.

The annoyance of the cookie banners is the entire draw for companies. Its not a downside. They're user-hostile. You are their enemy. Their goal is to wear you down and trick you into opting-in, so they can both track with impunity and follow the law.
