Research direction

Start in the NFTs tab by reproducing the listed flow with Basic Functionality disabled, then trace the NFT auto-detection banner and its relationship to the Basic Functionality setting. Done means the banner no longer enables NFT auto-detection while Basic Functionality is off and instead directs the user to Basic Functionality.
