There’s a priority 10 notice policy hook that configures some actions to take depending on the value of n$note, and by default it adds the logging action (to be performed later).

So either “break”ing from a hook with priority greater than 10 or “delete n$actions[Notice::ACTION_LOG]” from one with lower priority should prevent a notice from being logged.  The former would also prevent any email/alarm actions associated with the notice type.
