BMW Navigation Shows Gas Stations?

When using the built-in BMW navigation app, the map shows gas stations, in addition to EV charging stations. This is really silly and clutters the map for no reason. Is there a way to prevent the many gas stations from being shown?

This came up in the G60 forum recently - it seems you can toggle off the points of interest but can’t customize them

I suspect because gas stations offer more than just fuel - and there are a lot of them: tire repair, food, restrooms, occasionally even charging stations. I'd like to know where they are on a long trip.

There should still be a way to turn them off if folks don't need that stuff and don't want to clutter their navigation display. Choices are good.

Yes - it would be nice to be able to customize so we each see what we do or don't want to see. Thanks.
