Is it possible to disable Emergency Stop Signal (ESS) in 2017+ BRZ?

Is it possible to turn off ESS (at least when car has disabled traction control or enabled track mode) in ECU so that I don't look like Christmas tree every 10 seconds?... Not gonna lie it's pretty distracting XD I lived with this for like 3 years now but my sanity is really on the edge at that point.

It's not that much of a problem in the daylight but at night those LED turn signals blink like crazy and whole world around me is blinking, reflecting yellow light... It's so visible that I can clearly see every time when I'm breaking on videos from my dashcam and I feel like an idiot on track and during spirited driving :T

If not then I'll just accept that this is my life now but it'd be cool to be able to disable it at least when car is in track mode. Either in "user-doable" way or by more advanced fiddling with computer by technician.

Honestly wish I could turn that on here in the US. I'm tired of having to reach out and hit the hazards every time I have to slam it in traffic.
