First tool-head used only for prime line? Prusa XL 5TH

I am slicing a multi TH (Tool Head) print and even though I only use TH3 and TH4 on the print, it still bed levels and primes TH1.  I can't figure out why. This is annoying as it gets drabs from TH1 on the print.   Is there a slicer setting I am not using correctly?  Appreciate your thoughts.

(I could switch out filament and potentially nozzles to always use TH1 in a print, but that is inconvenient...)

Thanks!

Best Answer by BaconFase:

It's because you're using a modified Printer Profile for a 1T. I switched it to a default 5T profile and the tool1 purge isn't there.

Agreed, I find this nonsensical and annoying.
But is the fault in the slicer or the firmware, or both?
