Maybe a new option could be added, but that seems difficult to guess
where to stop, and to which subsystems to apply this.

Can you not simply omit using `b4 prep --auto-to-cc` when working
with "internal" patches?

On my side, that's what I'm doing. I added a .b4-config file with this
content, not to have to specify --set-prefix nor --to:

[b4]
    send-series-to = MPTCP Linux <mptcp@lists.linux.dev>
    prep-pre-flight-checks = disable-needs-auto-to-cc
    send-prefixes = mptcp-next

Cheers,
Matt
