Disable Automatic "Show Desktop" when Clicking Desktop

Desktop & Dock System Settings, under Desktop & Stage Manager.

I recently upgraded to Sonoma, and everything is great except for one setting that was changed automatically. Now, anytime I click on the desktop on any display, all my windows on all displays fly off the screen in the same way the Show Desktop F11 function would work. This is quite an obnoxious feature I've been trying to figure out how to disable, but I haven't had any luck yet.

How do I turn off the default that automatically treats just clicking on the desktop as the same thing as pressing F11?

Make changes to suit your needs...
