And, to make it even more precise, I would call cookies, which are for login, also as non-essential, unless a visitor really wants to log in, meaning they navigate to the login page.

This means, that be default, I don't need any cookies, because I don't want to log in to most websites I visit. Only if I want to log in, I have need for such cookies.

...hit the nail on the head. By 'as close to none' I pretty much meant "any cookie that isn't about authentication and/or holding state of something as an authenticated user that would matter"
