Disable Column Coloring when Filtered, Grouped, or Sorted?

Hello everyone—when I filter a column in a base, Airtable adds a green background for all cells in the column. Is it possible to disable this coloring? (likewise for grouping and sorting, only with the colors purple and orange)

I can appreciate what the designers were trying to accomplish (clues in the user that automatic processing will occur on that column), but the visual disruption it creates in my case is not worth the indication (I would argue it’s better to just color or otherwise format the header row only if that is the aim).

No, this cannot be disabled in the grid view.

However, if you create an interface, there is no coloring for filtering or sorting in interfaces.

Ah, bummer, but I’ll see check out what I can do with interfaces. Thank you for the prompt response!
