Location = "Nowhere"

Don’t know if this would be useful to anyone else, but I find myself in a situation where I’d like to set a field group to not display anywhere. I’ve been thinking about how I could add by creating custom location rules, but I’m not sure by reading the setup of a custom location rule if I could make that work. I can achieve this by creating impossible rules like “Post Type = Post AND Post Type = Page”

This Works

add_filter('acf/location/rule_values/post_type', 'acf_location_rules_values_post_type');

function acf_location_rules_values_post_type($choices) {
  $choices['none'] = 'None of the Above';
  return $choices;
}

add_filter('acf/location/rule_match/post_type', 'acf_location_rules_match_none', 10, 3);

function acf_location_rules_match_none($match, $rule, $options) {
  return -1;
}
