Disabling only the DNS part of dnsmasq?

Installing and Using OpenWrt Network and Wireless Configuration

Apologies in advance if this is a dumb question. I've been trying to disable only the DNS part of dnsmasq (so it doesn't bind to :53), but haven't found anything in LuCI that allows me to do that for some reason. Excluding br-lan will also break DHCP, which is something that I'm trying to avoid. Changing the port away from 53 will work, but I'd rather not leave it open at all.

Is there a way to properly disable the DNS part of dnsmasq without interfering the DHCP functionality?

Set the "DNS server port" option in the advanced settings tab to 0 to disable the DNS part.
