Easy TOC counting as internal and incoming links

Hi,

I’m using the Easy table of contents plugin and already added the code to functions.php to tell Rank Math I’m using a table of contents.
The issue is, Rank Math sees the table of contents links as Internal and Incoming link. On a new post where I did no internal linking, Rank Math is saying I have 25 incoming links, which is not correct.

Is there any way to solve this?
