Is there a way to block the new Building Blocks feature?

Currently it's not possible to block the new building blocks feature in Google Slides. xFanatical Safe Doc doesn't have a matching policy to block it. 
May I ask the reason to block the Building Blocks feature in Google Slides?

Thank you.

Looking to get the new Building Blocks feature blocked in Google Slides as well. Some of the pictures may not be acceptable for some of our students.

Same for our school. Would appreciate having that blocked.
Thanks.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I am curious what is inappropriate… I scrolled through a bunch and kinda like some of the things as a template for my students. But now I’m a little worried🙃. What was inappropriate?

Our school has 6th grade boys. They cannot have access to pics to put in slides, where we cannot limit what is available. So, currently, this is in a building block, for example...
May be ok for some schools but not ours.

Thanks for all your feedback in this thread.

I would like to share good news regarding the issue of building blocks in Google Slides. The latest Safe Doc version 1.54.0's BlockBuildingBlocks policy is created to disable the building blocks in Google Slides. 
To enable this policy, please add 
"BlockBuildingBlocks": {
  "Value": true
}
in your xFanatical Safe Doc JSON configuration. Make sure to append a comma after the last policy to be a valid JSON.
After making the changes, please wait up to 24 hours for the policy to propagate to all your students.
I hope works and you're welcome to share any further feedback to the policy.
Thank you.
