 popup go away, rather than trying to select one of the choices (or click
 the x). That's because I once tried to click the "allow in the future" in
 order to pull it down and find other options (like "definitely no"), but
 somehow I ended up selecting allow and never got to see the other options.

 to drag it down to other options. It turns out I have to click on the
 triangle and drag it down. This is unintuitive to me.

 It has never occurred to me to drag anything anywhere!

 Everyone seems to have a differently wrong way to interact with this UI,
 clearly "we're all adorable little unique snowflakes" (in phobos' words).
 And clearly, this UI is borked.
