Enable urlSegments runtime with api?

How to enable urlSegments runtime instead of persistent in template settings? And where to be loaded before the current page returns a 404 error?

Not an answer, just curious what the use case is?

I won't enable UrlSegments for each template, but have a autoload module with should react based on path / urlSegments. Don't like the way to do it with query string. So allow one urlSegment by name (string) would be nice without the need to activate urlSegments at all.

I am doing it simply like this:

$page->template->urlSegments = 1;
