That trouble exists because "Art. 7 GDPR only requires that withdrawing consent must be as easy as providing consent. It does not state that declining consent must be as easy as consenting." and is being closed as more and more courts rule on it.
I believe all of the default cookie banner plugins will update and add the Reject All button in the first layer soon.

There are arguments against requiring a “Reject All” button in the first layer of a cookie consent management solution. This requirement is not explicitly included in the GDPR or the EU ePrivacy Directive. Art. 7 GDPR only requires that withdrawing consent must be as easy as providing consent. It does not state that declining consent must be as easy as consenting. However, the trend of the published views of the data protection authorities is towards including a “Reject All” button also in the first layer. Organizations should thus review compliance of their cookie consent solutions.

The Hanover Administrative Court in Germany delivered a landmark ruling that strengthens digital privacy protections by targeting manipulative cookie banners as Germany continues to take a strong stance against manipulative cookie consent banners that engage in dark patterns. This decision, led by Lower Saxony Data Protection Officer Denis Lehmkemper, mandates that websites must provide users with a clear, easy, and genuine choice to reject cookies, specifically requiring a visible “reject all” button alongside any “accept all” option.
