Option to turn off stylus button undo

Motivation
Holding the stylus (S Pen) button and tapping the screen invokes undo. The problem is I frequently press this button accidentally, undoing whatever I'm in the process of writing. Also, sometimes when I hold the stylus button down intending to erase, it undoes instead because I haven't dragged the stylus or held it down on the screen long enough.
Solution
I'd like there to be an option in the settings to turn off this "Hold stylus button and tap screen to undo" feature.

I've noticed that issue too, but I think I'd still want this feature even if it gets fixed.
@adil192 I will implement this if we can agree on specifics such as where on the settings page it will go. I think creating a separate section called "Stylus" would be acceptable, in case new options regarding stylus usage (like assigning tools to physical buttons) are implemented.
Is this particular to stylus? It seems simlar (related?) to the "undesirable undo with two fingers" bug https://github.com/saber-notes/saber/issues/643.
Is this particular to stylus?
Yes it is. The issue you mentioned is actually a bug caused (I think after a quick skim) by a feature that's supposed to prevent accidental strokes when zooming. This issue is a feature request that is asking to add an option to disable a feature.
There is no such feature, just a bug causing an undo. Closing as duplicate of #1006
