Allow the bullet behavior to be turned ON or OFF
I would very much like to have the option to turn the Bullet behavior ON or OFF. - Part of why I use Illustrator as much as I do is that I like to have complete control of my design. I use InDesign in a very limited, specific way, even with book layout, i.e. TOC & pagination. - For example, I'm trying to make headers for a short PDF and I can't add numbers before my headers without loosing control of the styling. They've been gobbled up by the bullet functionality and I can't even change the color. I can't stand the bullet function... I'm going to have to have 2 separate text boxes to make a simple numbered header. And I'm not going to set up a style for a short PDF, it's not worth my time. - I can see that some people want that InDesign bullet behavior in AI.. I'm fine with that, just give me the option to DISABLE the bullet feature - PLEASE!!

Lottie, Ai allows to disable the auto bullets.
Go to Preferences > Type, and uncheck the 'Automatic Bulleted and Numbered lists while typing'
Does it work for you?
Please be warned though, that Ai will resets the option each fresh installation, so make sure it get disabled if you do reinstall.
