Is there no way to do get it NOT to pester you with interactive dialog?

Prompting != dialog.

It just drops a help note down in the bottom line. If you remember the sequence of stuff, great. Punch it in at maximum speed and emacs cooks along just fine. If you don't, great. There's a little explanation about what to do next on that same line.

And confirming each and every substitution is not conducive for making
me a happy camper.  There are times when I want interactivity, and there
are times when I just want the tool to do what I tell it to and shut up.

And the bottom line tells you how to do a single replacement, skip, or do the full "replace everything please."

Again, if you want to jam in the keystrokes, you can do that too.

One of the things that helps with emacs is that you can use the memorized keystrokes, but you also get some discoverability if you do not know them yet.
