How to stop a name with a "." being auto nested

[BatchCodes]

Is there a way to stop the data being received by the function passes to handleSubmit having the names automatically nested if they contain . ?

For example in the following snippet (and linked codesandbox)

    <form onSubmit={handleSubmit(onSubmit)}>
      <label>Example</label>
      <input name="thing.first" defaultValue="test" ref={register} />
      <label>ExampleRequired</label>
      <input
        name="thing.second"
        ref={register({ required: true, maxLength: 10 })}
      />
      {errors.exampleRequired && <p>This field is required</p>}
      <input type="submit" />
    </form>

I would like the object received by the onSubmit function to be {"thing.first": "first value", "thing.second": "second value"} rather than {thing:{first:"first value", second:"second value"}}

Is this possible? Thank you in advance

not possible with our current design and the support with type check (typescript), '.' is a key character for us to convert into array or object.
