With the invention of content categories and associated actions
back at 2.4.0 (see release notes) (and a fix for CC_SPAMMY at 2.4.1)
this area became much more flexible. In your case the relevant
default setting is:
%defang_by_ccat = (
CC_VIRUS, sub { c('defang_virus') || c('defang_all') },
CC_BANNED, sub { c('defang_banned') || c('defang_all') },
CC_SPAM, sub { c('defang_spam') || c('defang_all') },
CC_SPAMMY, sub { c('defang_spam') || c('defang_all') },
CC_BADH, sub { c('defang_bad_header') || c('defang_all') },
CC_UNCHECKED, sub { c('defang_undecipherable') || c('defang_all') },
CC_CATCHALL, sub { c('defang_all') },
);
(btw, the CC_SPAM is associated with kill_level, CC_SPAMMY with tag2_level,
and "CC_SPAMMY,1" is associated with a new (rarely used) tag3_level)

Actually, defanging at tag2 level is already a default:
amavisd-new-2.4.1 release notes
- revert a change introduced with 2.4.0, which was adding address extensions
at CC_SPAM, i.e. when score exceeds kill level. Previously (2.3.3) address
extensions were inserted at tag2 level. Implemented by a new mechanism:
a new major contents category CC_SPAMMY is inserted just below the CC_SPAM,
where CC_SPAMMY is controlled by tag2_level and CC_SPAM continues to be
selected at kill_level. Also spam defanging (if enabled) is now activated
at CC_SPAMMY and no longer at CC_SPAM (which was on a TODO list for some
time); undesired change in 2.4.0 reported and changes tested by Mario Liehr;
For more flexibility, one may modify %defang_by_ccat.
