Maybe I do not understand fully, but you say "as it is the only node with river set to true" - this means to me there is only this one node that should run river instances - and then you have observed the RiversRouter redistributes "uniformly" rivers to other nodes? I'm a bit confused where you want to see river instances running.
The current river concept is that a river instance is running as a singleton on the node where it has been started, and in case of a node failure (or shutdown), another node takes over. There are several challenges with that concept. So I'm afraid that disabling river allocation will add more challenges to the automatic failover idea.
