If anyone is interested in a hack, I figured out a simple solution that works for the time being. You can hide the mention pill profile photos by adding a custom CSS to your browser. It’s a hack, and I prefer not to add custom CSS, but we gotta do what’s needed when Asana won’t listen to our feedback.

  1. On Chrome, Install the ‘User JavaScript and CSS’ chrome extension. It appears to be a reliable extension with great reviews and a large user base.

  2. Go to https://app.asana.com/

  3. Click the ‘User JavaScript and CSS’ extension on the top right corner (usually, it’s hidden in the Extension menu/puzzle-looking icon) and click the plus button (New Rule), which will open up the extension JS/CSS editor.

  4. On the right pane, under the CSS editor, copy/paste the code below and click SAVE. Close the window and go back to Asana. You may need to refresh the browser, you should no longer see the profile photos when people are mentioned in task descriptions and comments.

span.WorkGraphObjectPill-iconContainer.WorkGraphObjectPill-iconContainer--domainUser {
    display: none;
}

Please note that this will only work on the browser to which you add the extension and custom CSS. If you use multiple computers and browsers, you may need to repeat this process.
