Disabling Pattern Directory doesn't remove all references (since 6.7)

[MadtownLems]

Description

We are using the following code snippet to disable the Pattern Directory

function example_theme_support() {
    remove_theme_support( 'core-block-patterns' );
}
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'example_theme_support' );

from here: https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/how-to-guides/curating-the-editor-experience/disable-editor-functionality/#disable-the-pattern-directory

Since 6.7, there are still visible references to the Pattern Directory.

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

1. Put the provided code snippet into functions.php, a plugin, or similar
2. Use the Block Inserter, click on Patterns, choose a category of Patterns, and see multiple references to the Pattern Directory

I should clarify, though, that this is not actually new in 6.7 - I just missed it until now. I see the same in 6.6.2
