View submission: Announcing Online Presence Indicators
I don't even want to appear offline because that's still communicating a status regardless of how true it is. I want to be truly opt-out and just not participate in this at all, remove the indicator entirely.

I don't think that's realistic, and that would be a clear indicator that you opted out, which is exactly what the problem is and is the opposite of what we should want.
If you want to be able to opt out of seeing the indicator for other people yourself in your app/view, I can run with that, but as far as other users there would be no discernable difference between me and someone offline if I opt out.
