Disable or extend Guardian on Quest?

Is this possible? I am attempting to use the Quest in an open Gymnasium. I am able to define a fairly large space, but it has limits...really want to enable the entire gym. Thanks.

    Figured out how to enable developer mode but still don't see options for disabling guardian....

    Developer mode just allows you to sideload apps -- I don't think there is any way to disable the guardian system. At least not yet. But it does make me want to know how people were posting on Reddit those experiences wandering around a field or beach. Maybe it was an early release of the hardware/software that didn't have the guardian system in place yet.

    It seems there used to be an option to disable the guardian system when you were in developer mode (saw it on YouTube), but I can't find it on mine :(

    From the oculus app on the phone:
    Enable developer mode.

    From inside the Quest:
    Press oculus button on the controller.
    Goto options.
    Click show all.
    Click developer.
    Toggle guardian mode on/off

    I tried this, and at first glance, it seems to work. However, after the Quest falls asleep, it seems like I have to reset the toggle again before the guardian mode is turned off again. (When the Quest wakes up, it forces me to reset the Guardian Boundaries)

    Anyone else running into this problem?
