The only way to prevent it is to never use it.  Once you start using it
the system will learn and continue to make assignments.  Alas, there is
no way in the UI to reset it (patches welcome to an aspiring developer
-- it's not a lot of code to implement this).

For now, the only way to do it is unsupported: You need to remove the
mappings from the Account Slots in your data file.
