It's a confusing irritating feature, then. This is not the way you cater
to different types of user; Make a setting in the Control Center to turn
it off. Clicking on the thing and having it just disappear is confusing.
I'm probably not the only person who thought it wasn't supposed to go away
when clicked.

It's the little things that matter, folks.
