Modifying a view runtime?

I wanted to remove click sort from a view and couldn't find anything. So I tried to force:

<?php

/**
 * Implements hook_views_pre_view().
 */
function sd8_views_pre_view(ViewExecutable $view, $display_id, array &$args) {
  if ($view->id() === 'content' && str_starts_with($display_id, 'embed') && \Drupal::routeMatch()->getRouteName() === 'entity.user.canonical') {
    $display_data = $view->storage->get('display');
    $info = &$display_data['default']['display_options']['style']['options']['info'];
    foreach ($info as &$column) {
      $column['click sortable'] = FALSE;
    }
    $view->storage->set('display', $display_data);
  }
}
?>

Even for me, that's some spectacularly ugly code. And it doesn't even work. How could this be done?
