I don't see how this feature would be disallowed by the accessibility guidelines you are pointing to. They state

and in some implementations, attempts to interact with the inert content cause the dialog to close

Note how they write "in some implementations".
There are cases where pressing a button in a modal triggers actions that take a while to complete and closing the dialog during that time would mess up with the application state so close on side-click should be disabled for all users during that limited amount of time. How else should such a case be handled?

By building your own Modal or using a dedicated page because some implementations include ours.

You might have more luck in v3, but for v2 the stance is set and won't change to not break backwards compatibility and expectations: Backdrop Clicks will close the modal.
