Describe the issue

I install μBlock Origin for Safari on as a matter of habit anytime I do a clean or fresh install of macOS. In this case, I'm setting up my new iMac for the first time. This is stock macOS, stock Safari at the time of writing.

I followed the standard installation instructions, yet right clicking and selecting "Block Element" does not activate Element Picker mode.

Neither does explicitly invoking either Element Zapper or Element Picker mode from the extension icon on the Safari toolbar.
