That’s why you see no banner. It isn’t an oversight: it’s a design choice. A banner asking consent for things nobody needs is the first example of what I criticise in my writing.

The legal reference
Article 122 of the Italian Privacy Code (ePrivacy Directive) requires consent only for what is not strictly necessary. The Italian DPA’s guidelines of 10 June 2021 make clear that a banner is needed when there are cookies or tools that require it. There are none here, so no banner. The YouTube video stays blocked until you decide to load it.
