Unlike iPadOS14 and earlier versions, multi-tasking (including split and slide-over views) cannot now be disabled in iPadOS15 from settings. Multi-tasking has received a significant overhaul, both simplifying its use and introducing new controls. Whilst the multitasking features cannot be disabled, they don’t have to be used.


Key to accessing and controlling [and/or perhaps not using] multi-tasking is the small “three-dot” button that is found at the top-centre edge of the screen.


More information about using multi-tasking can be found in this support page:

No one here could possibly answer that. This is a user to user only forum. No one from Apple is here. My best guess would be NO. Split view is a feature people begged Apple to bring for years. For me, it's an absolute requirement. And if someone doesn't like to use Split View, just don't use Split View.


You can certainly provide feedback to Apple via this link though --> Feedback - iPad - Apple
