Is there any way to completely disable the match expansions mentioned in

Not as such.  You can always insert an empty pair of parens into the
middle of the string to keep it from being recognized, and if you're
not doing case-senstive matches then you can use a lowercase character
instead of an uppercase one.

        ^TO             is expanded
        ^T()O           is not expanded
        ^()TO           is not expanded
        ^(TO)           is not expanded
        ^To             is not expanded
