    Virtually all other software ever created uses the word "deactivate" for this. Passivation is a chemical process involving coating one material with another. There are enough instances of US/UK English being mixed, lack of a consistent naming convention, other quirks, etc. across the Unity API, please don't keep adding to the pile by also using weird naming.

    Bump, it's still not too late to fix this before the new input system is released
