'VS Code - Disable workspace settings

In the company I work in, someone had an idea to create workspace related color theme settings to better distinguish which project is currently active (pointless IMO). The problem is that I don't see any way to disable these settings. According to the documentation, workspace settings override user settings.

Does anyone have any idea or sugjestion on how I can overcome this issue?

Thank you in advance

For most settings you may able to patch their configuration scope to application level (doc, example), then their workspace or language-specific settings will be ignored.

You can modify the source and build your own vscode, or patch workbench.desktop.main.js: find pattern "setting.name":{description:...,type:...}, add ,scope:1 before } (1=ConfigurationScope.APPLICATION)
