Interesting question. IMHO you're right: if you reject 3rd party cookies at browser level, so "accepting" them from the GDPR form shouldn't really matter. Plus, many browsers nowadays forbid 3rd party websites to access cookies from other websites (in my understanding)...
I'd like someone with a more deep knowledge to contribute to the discussion.
Cookie banners are not really about cookies.
What they're actually asking for is consent to process your data for profit in unethical ways. That usually involves cookies but could theoretically be done entirely without. They're just a technological standard.
You might aswell say: "We use https. [consent] [settings]"
