Cookie notices and consent forms are two different things. The first comes from the ePrivacy Directive while the second comes from the GDPR. Consent forms are not only about cookies, the law doesn't even specify cookies and it's often using confusing phrasing (like "allow to use personal data collected through cookies or other means").

I don't see its usefulness, uBlock Origin's "Cookie Notices" list does the same thing.
For consent forms consent-o-matic is better, IDCAC / ISDCAC was not created for this.
Yeah, use an email relay service like Firefox Relay, SimpleLogin, the one from Proton if you have an account with them (that's SimpleLogin behind)…
You can create email aliases, that will relay the email to your main address. Create a new alias for each website so they can't use your email address to correlate your identity and you can close it anytime, you can even configure an alias to only allow a set amount of messages and auto-close afterward.
Here's how to auto-delete cookies without an extension: https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/blob/128.0/user.js#L669
Set privacy.sanitize.sanitizeOnShutdown and privacy.clearOnShutdown_v2.cookiesAndStorage (I don't know if privacy.clearOnShutdown.cookies is still needed) to true.
To allow a website to keep cookies do CTRL+I on the address bar then check "Set cookie" in the Permissions tab.
Not exactly.
uBlock Origin blocks the widgets (with the "EasyList – Social Widgets" blocklist, I don't remember if it's on by default). As would any other blocklist based blocked do like Privacy Badger, uBO is just better.
FF's strict mode has something called Total Cookie Protection that makes it so Facebook widget on site A cannot read the cookie dropped by the Fackebook widget on site B. It isolate 3rd party cookies for each website.
Because it doesn't bring anything more than Firefox in strict mode and uBlock Origin.
It's not, use uBlock Origin.
Drop IDCAC and Privacy Badger, add consent-o-matic, sponsorblock and bypass paywall clean.
Check Arkenfox for Firefox config and extension recommendations.

Only use temp mails for unimportant, one-shot account, otherwise use an email relay.
Cookie autodelete doesn't work with strict mode and you should use strict mode. Just drop it.
You don't need an extension to auto remove cookies with Firefox.
Just Hi-rez being Hi-rez. They have a long history of shutting down games. I'm never getting any game from them anymore.
Be careful and keep a backup, I've read so many stories of Apple deleting people music randomly.
That's not necessarily that useful.
