Actually, I did this before. I put it in nothink mode but system prompted it to use custom tags

Screenshot has thinking tags because I put the custom tags in Kobold to parse them into the visual layout.
It worked partially, but after a while the model fell into the native thinking style with third person characterization no matter how forbidden. It seems that the model is just trained to recognize that particular bullet point list as thinking which strongly pushes it into the soulless thinking style. Perhaps if you restrict the structure to different style of bullet points or prefixes it could work.
