Magento 2.2.3 - Remove price from select field on product page

This is an update for Magento 2.2 and 2.3 --- the proper way to remove this is to override a JavaScript file into the active theme, and remove a section of code

The culprit is

vendor/magento/module-configurable-product/view/frontend/web/js/configurable.js - line 415

// vendor/magento/module-configurable-product/view/frontend/web/js/configurable.js
// ... Line 415 on Magento 2.2.x, 2.3.x

if (optionPriceDiff !== 0) {
    options[i].label = options[i].label + ' ' + priceUtils.formatPrice(
        optionPriceDiff,
        this.options.priceFormat,
        true);
}
// ...

Commenting out the above code block will remove the price increase without the need to add an additional binding onto the page.
