It’s a double edged sword, because the seekability of YT Shorts mean I’ll actually watch them.

Not in my web browser right at this minute. I have to edit the URL from /shorts/ to /watch?v= all the time.

I used a greasemonkey script to automatically edit the URL for me

That is a relatively recent change.

Huh, yeah, I just checked and can indeed now scrub them! It's been a while since I last gave them a chance.
