Taking a "Photo" creates a 1 second video. Why?

When I take a "photo" on my iPhone 11, it records the image as a 1 second video. Why and how can I change it? Makes it impossible to post to certain websites. Thanks

iPhone 11, iOS 13

See: Take and edit Live Photos - Apple Support


It has a section about how to turn it off and how to preserve the off setting.
