That plugin represents a fair bit of code to read through but I did not see any obvious way to prioritize/eliminate/ignore categories in the way you want.
I would suggest that you stop abusing categories and convert your code to use post meta (probably) instead of categories to ” to assign specific properties to given pages”.
