PDP Variant Picker - Only allow user to interact with dropdown if a choice between several options exists

[bredowmax]

Describe the enhancement you'd like On PDP, currently dropdown is rendered even if the current option is the only one that exists, falsely suggesting the shopper that a choice exists, when in fact there isn't one. In these cases, the dropdown shouldn't be rendered, or at least be inactive.

Additional context/screenshots

I think making the dropdown inactive would be better as it can still contain relevant information, e. g. as per your example "One size fits all". It might even be an idea to render the dropdown in a way that discourages clicking/tapping on it, so it's immediately clear that the element is informational rather than interactive. This could be done either by styling the dropdown accordingly or replacing it with a disabled text field or something similar.

We often need both, to hide or fade variant exceptions.

e.g. Take bedding...

• You generally want sizes (Queen, King etc) faded when not available so customers can see what's usually offered.
• But variants which aren't possible need hiding completely; like a deep-base option for fitted sheets when the combination chosen doesn't contain fitted sheets.

DEFAULTS

• Fade out-of-stock but hide 'not possible'
• However, each merchant, industry and customer is different so the ability to both hide or fade out-of-stock and 'not possible' is often required.
