Exactly. I have pi-hole and maybe one every month I have to go to the web interface and click the link to disable blocking for five minutes while I use some kind of shady software.
If it's something I use often I might spend the time to look through the logs and work out the correct ___domain to unblock.
But there are also handy "disable for 10s/30s/5m" functions which just let me get on with my day.
