The rationale for this 'Web display' feature is that some users may not want this new tool at all.

We wanted to give them the option to have it be mostly invisible to them, and keep things the way they are today.

Once we've improved Notifications based on community feedback, we would encourage them to switch to the new tool down the line.

This turns off the notifications badge and overlay/flyout. Email notifications still work as normal. Special:Notifications also still works. The orange bar of death reappears.
