How to disable middle click on touchpad completely?

The problem is probably rooted in how my Asus touchpad is handled, every linux distribution I've tried reads my touchpad as the left 33% should left click, the middle 33% should middle click, and the right 33% should right click. Coming from Windows, I'd expect the left 50% to left click, and the right 50% to right click, and no middle click at all. Bazzite is the only thing that could come close to fixing this. The system setting "Press left and right buttons to middle-click" actually changes the triple button layout to the standard double button layout, however I do not need this to emulate a middle click event nor for it to add the 50 ms delay to make the feature I don't need work, I only need the 50/50 split part. For playing games like Minecraft it's non-negotiable to have the button layout be the same and not have the side effect of added latency to emulate a button I'm never going to use (I don't really use the Windows scroll thing, nor clipboard 2, and in games where it has a useful use (like Minecraft) I just remap it to a keyboard key). Any help would be appreciated, it is quite literally the one and only reason I haven't made the switch to Linux yet.
