To decide which taxonomies can be translated and which won't, you must go to WPML -> Settings -> Taxonomy translation -> Adjust the configuration of the desired taxonomies -> Save the changes.
I changed the taxonomies to 'Niet vertaalbaar' which is non translateable. See the image attached (1)
Then all one by one (like 400 taxonomies) I toggled them to non translateable and when I saved them, it saved all the changes until here. See image attached (2)
All of them didn't toggle to non translateable except for 1 (see image attached 3)
I recommend you try again, however, it is not recommended to set all taxonomies to non-translatable, especially the Woocommerce taxonomies, because this can affect the behavior of the site and cause issues.
I tried it even 20 times. I have to set them all to non translatable because I am running tests. There are too many queries running and I want to see if this lowers the queries.
