Yes, and I'm not saying otherwise.

The main issue here is that it lacks a description (as what's
there is just a copy of the subject).

Why is it needed to "disable non-preview configurations"?

Also, as you're actually commenting the code with #if 0, I'm assuming
that you're thinking on re-enable the code (or re-implement with a
different logic) in the future.

So, please add a note before the #if 0, as otherwise I'm pretty
sure someone will end by sending us patches just stripping it.

Regards,
Mauro
