Anyway to block/deny "View Network Connections" permission on unrooted Android 11 phone?

I'm trying to use an app that has this permission selected, which can't be denied/blocked in Android settings (as far as I've seen.) If my estimate is correct, the app is using this permission to deny my ability to the app. I say that, because if I remove my SIM card, the app loads. Therefore I assume it's the app accessing my network connections that's causing it to block me.

I'm not desperate enough to use the app that I want to root my phone, so if there is another non-root app option to deny such permissions, I'd love to hear about it. Thanks in advance!
