This was Delphi Berlin, but Live Bindings is not much better in any other Delphi version when opening a project group having multiple applications none of which use Live Bindings:
This is how you disable them in Delphi 10.1 Berlin from the console; modify your BDS version and BPL version for other Delphi versions:
reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Embarcadero\BDS\18.0\Disabled Packages" /v "$(BDSBIN)\dclbindcomp240.bpl" /t REG_SZ /d "Embarcadero LiveBindings Components" /f
reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Embarcadero\BDS\18.0\Disabled Packages" /v "$(BDSBIN)\dclbindcompfmx240.bpl" /t REG_SZ /d "Embarcadero LiveBindings Components FireMonkey" /f
reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Embarcadero\BDS\18.0\Disabled Packages" /v "$(BDSBIN)\dclbindcompvcl240.bpl" /t REG_SZ /d "Embarcadero LiveBindings Components VCL" /f
reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Embarcadero\BDS\18.0\Disabled Packages" /v "$(BDSBIN)\dclbindcompdbx240.bpl" /t REG_SZ /d "LiveBindings Expression Components DbExpress" /f
reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Embarcadero\BDS\18.0\Disabled Packages" /v "$(BDSBIN)\dclbindcompfiredac240.bpl" /t REG_SZ /d "LiveBinding Expression Components FireDac" /f
(Reminder to self: modify bitbucket.org/jeroenp/wiert.me/src/tip/Native/Delphi/Scripts/List-Delphi-Installed-Packages.ps1 so it can generate these)
Edit: I have done just that: it now understands the GenerateDisablePackagesScriptparameter so it generates a small console script to disable various packages.
