how to disable di.xml virtual types from vendor in custom module

Question

I am currently experiencing an issue where a vendor module is using MSI, however we needed to disable it via composer completly ( magento 2.3.4 ) The vendor module in question is the amasty layered navigation module ( amasty/shopby) which in the di.xml has the following declarations:

        <arguments>
            <argument name="name" xsi:type="string">Magento\InventorySalesApi\Api\StockResolverInterface</argument>
        </arguments>
    </virtualType>

    <virtualType name="defaultStockProvider" type="Amasty\ShopbyBase\Model\Di\Wrapper">
        <arguments>
            <argument name="name" xsi:type="string">Magento\InventoryCatalogApi\Api\DefaultStockProviderInterface</argument>
        </arguments>
    </virtualType>

    <virtualType name="stockIndexTableNameResolver" type="Amasty\ShopbyBase\Model\Di\Wrapper">
        <arguments>
            <argument name="name" xsi:type="string">Magento\InventoryIndexer\Model\StockIndexTableNameResolverInterface</argument>
        </arguments>
    </virtualType>

    <type name="Amasty\Shopby\Plugin\CatalogSearch\Model\Indexer\Fulltext\Action\DataProvider">
        <arguments>
            <argument name="stockResolver" xsi:type="object">stockResolver</argument>
            <argument name="defaultStockProvider" xsi:type="object">defaultStockProvider</argument>
            <argument name="stockIndexTableNameResolver" xsi:type="object">stockIndexTableNameResolver</argument>
        </arguments>
    </type>```

Instead of commenting them out on the ```vendor/amasty/shopby/di.xml``` how is it possible to override that in a custom module and disable them ?
