I only use lane warning. If I cross the line I get little red lines and green when back in the lane. I use Adaptive Cruise all the time and don't keep both hands on the wheel at all times because I am shifting gears. No warning even if both hands are off the wheel. I have a 2024. Maybe software update for 2025 2026.
Keep it longer of the wheel while using adaptive cruise control and lane centering and you will have it.

Manual owners like us don’t have the warning problem. We don’t get lane centering, at least in the US.
Truthfully I would not mind having the option for longer highway cruises.

That warning is always active and I have not yet seen an option to disable it. It comes on way sooner when the cruise control + lane centering is enabled. When driving without cruise control or cruise control without lane centering it appears very rarely.

That's to prevent people not to use it too long without using their hands. It's a safety feature you can't turn off.

I never turn lane centering on and I never see the warning.

The second I turn it on I inevitably see it within an hour of driving.

I'm already the quintessential old guy driving a cool car. I don't need to wander back and forth in my lane just to keep my car from nagging me. I'm going to look like grandpa Miller wandering all over the lane in his DeSoto.
