For me, sometimes attraction does go away with time - for example, if I find out something about a person that's kinda DNW, and I know I would never want to actually be in a relationship with them, then over time (especially if I keep encountering them) it can fade to nothing. But it's not something I can just up and decide.

The reverse is also true - sometimes I can start experiencing attraction to someone I hadn't seen that way before. In fact, pretty much all the guys I've ever had feelings for beyond "o look he's cute" fall into this category. I tend to be more attracted to guys I know and am friends with.

Yep, but that's still definitely not choosing whether or not to be attracted to someone. You and your perceptions change, people change, your relationships change, and you learn more about people, and all these things influence your attraction.

A human can no more make attraction disappear on their own schedule than they can keep attraction going when it starts to fade. Does anon think people choose to fall out of love with their spouses?

I didn't say it was. I'm not of the mind that attraction can be controlled, anon. Sometimes me choosing not to focus on it makes it more likely to go away, but that's about as good as it gets for me. And it doesn't always work.
