Option to disable a side button on Inspire 2

Offer the option to have only one of the 2 side buttons on this device be responsive. It's a good feature to have 2 side buttons, but only one needs to be active for normal use.
This is needed because:
My Fitbit Inspire 2 display activates every time my wrist is in extension. This is not because I wear it abnormally, but because of excess fat. My device constantly lights the display, vibrates, or changes settings. The option to use either one or both buttons would vastly improve function and should be very easy to implement.
I'd use this: Daily

This is so annoying that I have to keep Water Lock on permanently to prevent the constant vibration & as a result I'm having to charge the device much more frequently. There should be an option to disable the side buttons
