The usual reason why an option is not there, is that no-one has written
it yet.

(Sometimes, the idea of the option has been explicitly rejected. I do
not know the history of this one.)

However, one possible immediate workaround, untested by me, might be to
define another limit_req_zone with a key variable that you do not set
anywhere. (Call it "zone=off", for example.)

Then in your nested location, use

  limit_req zone=off;

and that should stop the outer value from being inherited.

Good luck with it,
