If you are ready to pay to remove it, just pay for the YT subscription.

How would that help? It would still nag you to log in each time you cleared cookies.

Do not clear them, you can‘t eat the cake and have it.

There are plenty of reasons why someone would not want to pay for YouTube Premium beyond just money.

Maybe it isn't available in their region, maybe they do not have or want an account or agree with the company's privacy policy, and finally if they clear cookies regularly then an account still won't solve their problem as they'd have to login each time to dismiss the popup.
