There should be a way to disable backups (i am keeping my anki profile data inside limited sized veracrypt container that i backup myself)

You can set Minutes between automatic backups to 9999 though, and the other counters to 0. That way only one backup will be stored, plus maybe the occasional forced backup.

Still a problem, and proposed solution will still create at least 5-6 backups (100mb in my case) and fill up the drive

With a high minutes between automatic backups, you should only get extra backups created if you perform multiple potentially dangerous operations like a DB check or full download from AnkiWeb within 2 days.
