The proposal includes no JS at all, and will probably reduce the amount of JS because it replaces current cookie consent modals and banners.

It includes JS. See section "8. JavaScript-based interaction". I guess the idea is that just as you can control cookies both via HTTP headers and JS, you will be able to request consent both via HTTP headers and JS.

My mistake. It does have an option to use JS, though it's not a requirement and it's no-JS by default.
