The likely reason for the light not being able to be shut off are simple. It's is wired directly into the power supply of the Controller. It doesn't go through a control board. Can't be shut off, because Sony planned to have that be an integral part of the PS4. They could however make a change in a future iteration of the controller if they wanted, but they might not just to save face.
It is near the end of the end....
