Sorry, I really tried, but I can't find the corresponding setting inside the Visual Studio Code settings. After an update, it was just there, and I think it’s ugly and also distracting.
To be clear, I want to get rid of the bordered box and background inside the curly braces.
Also I am curious why such a high emphasis on the JavaScript portion of the template is deemed necessary. The two yellow curly braces on each side are more than enough to quickly spot it.
