It makes you wait 24hr before you can confirm if you want it set permanently. You'll have to go back to that setting tomorrow to continue.

Ah yeah, I understood that part. It's just that this step never happened for me: "Verify Intentions: Flip the toggle, confirm that you are not being coerced by a third party, and enter your device PIN or password."

So, I just checked and the button is back. Looks like the fuckers actually made it two days to wiggle out from under their entrapment-like gimmick. Now I have to wait another 24 hours.

Yup, just checked and it's the same here. Button is back and I was able to turn on the countdown.

Mine, it was difficult to find in the list and didn't come up at all when searching the menu. But it was still there, I'm just waiting for the countdown to complete. Maybe it got buried in the list? 🤷
