Don't want to log in again and again every time I clear my browser's cookies!

Valid. Except on some browsers e.g. Vivaldi you can put sites on a list that retain their cookies even when you clear the rest.

That’s…literally the point of clearing cookies? Do you also complain that swimming makes you wet?

I clear cookies in my browser on exit. Because I want to clear most cookies.

I have dedicated apps for services where I don't want to log in every time, even when they have a web version, because of the above.

I know this can be done with firefox settings (at least on desktop) but thats a hassle.
