Disable Xcode 6 built-in snippet?

Question

Is there a way to disable certain built-in snippets of Xcode 6?

Specifically I find the Core Data Fetch snippet to be distracting and not useful (since I use mogenerator and the default snippet doesn't paste in the correct fetch that's optimal for it). Hence I'd like to disable just this particular snippet.

It is possible to edit Xcode's built-in snippets, indeed, as described here, though bear in mind that the changes can be lost when updating to a newer version of Xcode.

Specifically, as of Xcode 6.3.1 (6D1002), the Core Data Fetch snippet can be found at line 681 in the snippet file:
