No Cookie for You

Part of the problem is that when it first passed, the advice was to just add a cookie banner no matter what to be safe, since no one really understood the law and exactly when it did or did not apply.

You are right, and that unfortunately happened because nobody even tried to read the law (which is quite clear regarding this). It's easier to just follow other sheep.

The banners are an opportunity to have the user consent to more than they would otherwise consent to (“allow all”).
