Yes, thankfully there is. You can reduce the transparency in the Accessibility settings.

I’d wish that the computation load / battery drain would also be reduced by reducing the transparency. However, I think that the computation will still take place.

Ooof that's not great. I had a Macbook 12 that really needed reduced transparency + motion to run well...

I guess the M-series chips are up to the task, but still seems like unnecessary computation I can't turn off :(
