I managed to get my question answered on StackExchange [1]. It seems the solution is to turn off org-agenda-search-headline-for-time. Would it be possible to add a footnote to the time of day specification manual page [2] indicating that this is the variable that controls whether org-agenda scans headlines for timestamps in plain text? Right now, unless you already know that that variable exists, you have no idea what to look for in order to turn this feature off.
