No, come on. This is a dark pattern. It’s easy for someone technically-inclined, but most users see only the big obvious buttons and skip right over what looks like it could just be an irrelevant footnote at the bottom. My parents would absolutely end up creating accounts and be frustrated about it, but I’m also willing to bet most of my friends who aren’t in tech would do the same.
I mean, the bypass isn’t exactly hidden.

Maybe you should highlight it with a red circle, because I still don’t see it.
needs few circles around the X in the corner too.
bonus points for subtly hidden dick and balls, though
Oh, Oooh. NOW I SEE IT!
The problem is that they needed to have that big blue button be the download, and the “log in or sign up” should be that small, black text below it.
Better for the UX, and less of a dark pattern.
