Swipe left or right on a text mesage thread

how do I turn off the swipe left to message or right to call on a text message thread? I keep hitting the header and calling people who have messaged me.

As far as I know, you can't disable that. Thought it would be in motion controls, but I don't see it there.

I too thought it would be there, but couldn't find it. You would think they would offer an on/off for it.
