Since when is middleware that is designed to hinder the competition something you don't care to see, it is something which is not needed in the form it exist now. There is no other measure then being anti competitive. There is no need for 200 tessellation points in something as simple as a cape.
Game development needs to be about games not about how much money Nvidia is willing to give you to "cripple" your game for AMD customers
Just turn it off then pretty simple.
I don't think its so hard to click a check box for game works features is it? Might be hard for you.....
