How to delete sprint/iterations from Timelines?

In project area, under "overview" tab, "Timelines" section, i have:
Main Development [Project Timeline]
Release 1.0
Sprint 1
Sprint 2
Backlog
In my project we have 10+ teams who want to use agile planning. So they all create there sprints, and close it when done. But I am not seeing the option to delete sprint from the "Timeline". There is a button called "Delete" but it archives and doesn't remove the sprint from timeline. I can still see it there in "Timeline".
The problem is after 6 months, there will be 100+ sprints and all visible under "Timeline" making it difficult to manage.
Is there a way to remove a sprint completely from Timeline?
Please let me know.
