I think there might be a misunderstanding.

The highlighting is there by default, these messages are only a hint that =
if you want more features via the LSP protocol, you can install these extr=
a tools.

If you don't want/need that, you can even just disable the LSP plugin in t=
he settings and these messages will never show up again.

Greetings
