Prevent bulk selection from automatically converting tasks into subtasks when pressing Tab

Domingo Echenique
Currently, when I am in List view and select multiple tasks, pressing Tab automatically converts all selected tasks into subtasks of another task. This behaviour is very problematic for my workflow, as it happens unintentionally and can cause significant task hierarchy changes by mistake.
Please add an option to disable or change this shortcut, so that pressing Tab while multiple tasks are selected does not automatically indent them as subtasks. This would help prevent accidental hierarchy changes and improve control over task structure.
Or add maybe a confirmation.

Do NOT convert to subtask using tab key

When in list view (at least) and I have 1 or more task selected, and press the tab key, it converts them into a subtask. I want to avoid doing this. Maybe as a config. item: "Press tab to convert to subtasks" , or something
Many people in my team have done this, without knowing and the task just "disappears", and the activity log doesn't show this behavior

Option to disable "Tab" from turning task into subtask

Hello! Right now, pressing the Tab key while having subtasks selected in List view results in the task turning into a subtask.
This can be very annoying if I select a bunch of tasks, then move to a different window and Alt+Tab back to Clickup. Suddenly, the tasks become subtasks, and it's hard to keep track of which task they've become parented under.
It would be great if this was added to the Keyboard shortcuts that we could disable.
