It's unrecoverable and it's terminal, and it can be really painful, while at the same time it's not that often that you would want to throw something away either, so it wouldn't hamper the gameplay otherwise. A simple screen with clickable yes-no options would do.
I won't say there shouldn't be this kind of confirmation popup, but if you're really mad for losing your item, you can "quit without saving" and replay your turn.

Of course, depending on how far you are in your game, that may be a LOT...

This trick is also handy if you did alchemy in the wrong direction, bought too much province defense, or any other "immediate" action that you then regret. (I don't know why you can't cancel province defense that you bought this turn - but you can't, without this kind of trick.)

You don't need to quit without saving though - you can just finish your turn normally, but don't host, instead click on your nation again, and when it says you have already played your turn, click on "Redo turn from start".

In both cases though you will have to redo your entire turn.
