Making it more annoying to not consent is already illegal so otherwise that’s just the website having poor UX. What’s the EU got to do with a website that intentionally or by incompetence has poor UX? That’s not illegal and shouldn’t be… As long as both consenting and not consenting is equally shit it isn’t unfair, and the poor UX is really just a detriment that the developers brought upon themselves.

While “technically true” it’s naive to assume the law will be implemented the way you imagine.
Government raises taxes on gas. “OMG the companies are charging more for their products!”
Government makes it harder to meet emission standards for small trucks. “OMG companies aren’t making small trucks anymore!”
You have to assume that companies will act as petulant children. They will almost always exercise malicious compliance.
