> especially when the app can't reliably know they were refused
That's the problem. Android didn't do this even though it was obviously what is needed. Android apps can easily tell what permissions they have.
I think Google prioritised UX over power and security here. They were presumably scared about people accidentally clicking the "Silently deny" button and then getting confused when the app didn't work. Big missed opportunity.
