Steve,

You can easily take the realtime gauge data extension out of the equation 
if you wish by disabling the service. In weewx.conf under [Engine] 
[[Services]] just delete , user.rtgd.RealtimeGaugeData. Of course you will 
need to restart weeWX, afterwards you can re-enable it by adding the entry 
back in and restarting weeWX. This will not affect any of your config 
(steelseries or otherwise) it just means gauge-data.txt will not be 
produced.
