You can achieve that by just using incognito mode. Though the extension would surely be more flexible.
Still, I haven't used a browser extension in years, partly because of extensions like this that require access to all browsing data, even if they're open source like in this case (though the author of "I don't care about cookies" has a strange concept of distribution[1]). The inconvenience of wiping cookies and clicking through cookie consent forms is much more tolerable than allowing random extensions access to all my browsing data.
