If I wanted to cancel this behaviour later in the script, how would I do that?
Depends what you mean by cancel.
If you simply want to discard output and error messages so that they cease to appear in the logs, you can redirect to /dev/null (although this will not affect any commands that are already logging and running).
If instead you would like to revert output and errors to their original destinations, you'll have to use exec to save the original locations.
