Delete default links on control panel

So the custom links feature is sunsetted without being transferred to an “extension”.
Okey-dokey.
How about a way of blocking the default links on the active profile panel altogether?
You see, one of the most valuable features (that I would have paid for) is the ability to totally customize the links in the user panel. Which is no longer an option.
I have a 5-year-old web project using this plugin and I do not have time to search for something different after this update. There’s an obvious workaround for the custom links I DO want, but now the default links (especially to the dashboard!!) need to be gone.
Ideas?
