Disable TalkBack on Google Nest - how is this not a thing yet?

How is this not a feature yet? You can disable Google Assistant's talkback / confirmation on your phone, but not on the Google Nest Audio?

If I tell Google to turn off my lights, I just want it to turn off the lights. Quietly. I do not want it to respond with 'OK, turning off <name of light>".

When I first googled how to do this (and it seems there is no way to do it for Nest Audio), I see this request go back all the way to 2019. That is five years of people requesting this feature, and it seems that it is still not implemented. Can I just ask HOW is this not yet implemented?

It doesn't seem like a hard modification to make, considering it already exists for Phone??!
