Can I turn off DigitalOcean kubernetes magic?

I’m trying to gain more control over the cloud resources created by my deployments, but I’m finding the “magic” that the do agent performs to translate k8s resources into DO resources (e.g. load balancers) to be hard to opt-out of. Is there a way to turn off some of those features for the cluster? Here’s a few things I’m running into:

1. Creating a LoadBalancer service automatically creates a DO load balancer asynchronously. There appears to be a way to stop this if I provide a custom annotation including the load balancer ID, but 1) this requires using provider specific annotations which I’m trying to avoid, and 2) this requires the LB to exist before the service exists.

2. Every time I create a NodePort service it automatically opens up the port to the public via the firewall rules. I don’t need this because I plan on creating and connecting a DO load balancer to the nodeport. Again, I can turn this off with an annotation, but once again its an annotation specific to DO, and more importantly specific to that service resource.

Can I just create k8s resources and have DigitalOcean do nothing without custom annotations on every resource?
