Can you provide more details on what the problem is?

Is the problem that systems on 10.10.46.0/24 are acquiring routes
pointing to .128 as a router (default or otherwise)?  If so, then that
implies that you want to disable routing advertisements on that
interface, or perhaps all advertising.  How do you have your routing
protocols configured?

Is the problem that there are systems on the 10.10.46.0/24 network that
have (maliciously?) set .128 as a next hop gateway for routes, and you
don't want them to be _able_ to use this system that way?  If so, then I
think you're probably looking at configuring IP Filter to exclude the
"unwanted" traffic.

Is the problem that you have packets forwarding through 10.10.46.0/24 on
this system, and that's just fine, but you don't want _certain_ remote
destinations to be reachable through there?  If so, then that might be a
configuration issue on those other systems, or a routing protocol
configuration problem, or perhaps yet another usage case for IP Filter.

Please clarify and provide specific examples of the issues you see.

The "-router" option turns off IFF_ROUTER, which disables all IP
forwarding on that interface.  It's the modern equivalent of the old
"ndd -set /dev/ip nge0:ip_forwarding 0" mechanism.
