I tried to click the button continuously and only and the 6th click that pop up come out.

this popup is a macOS feature that shows when hovering the mouse over the green button. I think this can not be disabled.

Fortunately the hover menu can be disabled...
defaults write -g NSZoomButtonShowMenu -bool no

Will apply to each app as they get restarted. Easiest to log out to force everything to pick up the change.
