Why does Crabnet create a figures folder and how to stop it from doing it?

I'm using Crabnet Extensively for a materials project I'm working on, andi it keeps creating a folder called "figures" with a .csv file inside.

Why does it create this folder and file and how can I stop it from creating them?

I've tracked the creation of the folder to the file crabnet_.py, specifically to the method _track_stats, defined on line 803 and called in line 422. This function does a bunch of checks to see if the figures folder has been created and then dumps a bunch of information on that folder.

I understand this might be vital if you're working with a big dataset where your computer might spend hours optimizing and thus you can check how the process is going, but it's of no use for me and not being able to silence that part is becoming a bit annoying...

If I'm understanding the code correctly, the solution might just be addding a new argument to the init function and the proper if loop to check the need of the call for the function, I'm open to doing it myself, but I'd like another person input on this topic before starting to mess with other people's code.
