You can just turn that off once and leave it off if it bothers you.

Even most power users leave it on except for temporary situations like this because it’s a helpful security protection.

Yup. I leave it alone. As much as it’s a hassle every 2 years or so when I need to do some voodoo on my laptop, it’s even more of a hassle for potential attackers. For me, for my risk profile, I believe it has a good return on investment.
