Auto Boot on Lid Open MacBook Pro 14" m3

I've encountered the situation where I open my new m3 14" MBP and it (annoyingly) automatically boots up without me pressing the power/fingerprint button. Wanting to turn the "feature" off, I've read a couple of articles where people have the same issue but I could not find any answers or solutions to the problem. Most of the threads I've seen are also not very recent...

Does anybody here have a solution?

There is no solution. There used to be a Terminal command to disable autoboot, but Apple eliminated it.

Indeed. You can submit feedback to Apple, they do read it but that does not imply they'll do anything to change it back.

OK. Thanks. That’s kinda sad though.
