Preloaded Messaging app: Can not find setting to only show Mobile numbers from Contacts

Preloaded Messaging app: Can not find setting to only show Mobile numbers from Contacts when you start typing in a contact name. I think I checked all Messaging app settings but can't find it. Did I miss something or does it really not give you the ability?

TIA.

In the phone app settings there is an option to only show contacts with phone numbers, that should work for messages too. I use that setting and it only brings up contacts with phone numbers when I search within the messages app. I'm using the stock messenger app.

Phone settings has an option to "Hide contacts without numbers." I toggled it on but in the Messaging app it will still show Home and Mobile numbers for my Contacts. :-\

I know Textra will probably give me this option but I was wanting to give the stock apps a chance.

I'd delete everyone's home numbers to make it easier... I mean who ever dials or keeps their home/landline numbers anymore LOL.

Thanks.
