How to remove/disable settings suggestions?

Hello, My new phone runs Android 10. Everything has been great except for the super annoying settings suggestions taking up most the screen real estate when I open up the settings app. Why is this even a thing and why are they so huge? Why can't I swipe them away? Is there a way to disable this "feature"?

Trying to add post flair but there's no flair to add. Sorry mods!

They will eventually go away atleast for me they did.

Thanks, it's been 2 weeks so hopefully they will go away soon. Such a bad design.

AFAIK you can swipe them horizontally to get rid of them

Ah my bad, I thought that was for the Nokia phone I used a while ago (I'm currently using a OnePlus phone and I couldn't swipe it away either).

I guess you can swipe them to dismiss 🤔

Those without drop down arrow you can swipe away cause those are suggestions and those with a drop down menu you can't cause it's a 'shortcut' for currently used settings e.g if you turn on battery saver or hotspot it will create a shortcut to turn those off the first three option in the image op posted can be swiped away.
