MIUI: Turn off auto flash off feature with power button

My Device: POCO M2 Pro Useless Feature: If flashlight is on and screen is turned off, then pressing the power button will turn off the flashlight first instead of waking the screen. My Question: How to disable this feature? It is set like this by default and there are no settings to change it. If my screen is off, I can't turn it on when my phone's flashlight is being used for some purpose where a temporary cut off from light source would be a problem. Disabling MIUI optimisations and then doing something is not preferred. Double tap to wake screen gestures etc. are not solutions to my problem. What if I press the power button accidentally! Thank you in advance. **Any suggestions are welcome.**
