I guess you could remove the actual auto darkening weld lense and leave the pivot section in place. That would only take about a minute to do.
I just flip mine up.

Technically you can remove it but it's not really designed to be removed all the time. I only removed mine once to replace a broken pivot spring.

Would be a lot cheaper to just buy one designed for grinding if you don't plan to use it for welding. 3M will have grinding only shields available.
