They're lying. They are such awful people that they forced some engineer to make a fake progress tracker, and introduce a timeout to the script to waste your time for opting out. My guess is that they're hoping next time they "forget" your preferences and present you with the same choice, you'll decide not to waste time with the opt out and just accept everything. Scumbag managers.
