Netgear Support just closed another case on me, claiming to have turned off SPC, but they have not.
I take it back. They actually f***ing did it! SPC has been successfully removed from my router. Despite SPC saying "online" still in My Netgear, I am able to access Access Control, set manual DNS entries, and in the app, it says SPC Expired.
