The stupid coating on my glasses is rubbing off, how do I just remove it entirely? Acetone maybe?

Next time ask your lenses without. Mines are the same, I have a new prescription & just told the shop "no". No anti-blue, no ant-reflection, no nothing, just the hardest material available.
Antiglare coating is a must for me. There’s a reason it’s used on lenses in cameras; it enhances contrast, and for purely aesthetic reasons, makes it easier for others to see your eyes, making you look better.
High index plastic is also great IMO, it significantly reduces the thickness and weight of the lenses. Also aesthetically, it reduces the distortion of the sides of your face when someone’s looking at you. It is not the hardest material available, and I believe the higher the index, the less hard they are. My lenses are typically completely scratch free for a year or two, getting only minor scratches after that.
I’ve never had an issue with coatings. I clean my glasses with hot water and Kimwipes (laboratory lint free wipes). I don’t use any lens cleaners or any other cleaning products. I never dry wipe my lenses.
Hot water and excessive heat from cooking can crack the coating.
I haven't read the manual but I don't think you're supposed to cook your glasses.
I’m not taking about boiling, just hot out of the tap. It helps gently heat the lenses so they dry faster after being wiped.
I buy my glasses cheap off the internet and wear em till they are broken. They last me years and I've never had any coatings come off like this.
I am now super curious if it's something OP did, or if it's a processing error (maybe technician put the coatings on in the wrong order) or what.
I thought I have been pretty careful with them, I did accidentally go swimming in saltwater with them but they were untouched once I realized and sprayed with purified water after, this was also after I realized the coating was coming off but it probably didn't help
