forced 404 without a location display ?

I have some servers where I use an old method of gating a path by using a file check.

this allows staff to turn off certain locations during migrations/updates without having root privileges (needed to restart nginx)

an issue I noticed– this method now (perhaps always) shows the name of the location on the default 404 template [the response that nginx generates via code, not a template on the fs]

Does anyone know how to disable showing the location without defining a custom template on the filesystem? or perhaps someone can think of a better way to accomplish my goals?

location /paths/to/ {
if (!-f /etc/nginx/_flags/is_running) {
rewrite ^.*$ @is_running break;
}
}
location = @is_running {
return 404;
}

=======
that generates this

<html>
<head>
<title>404 Not Found</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>404 Not Found</h1>
The resource could not be found.<br/><br/>
/@is_running

</body>
</html>
