Why does it show the faceted filter icon even though there aren't any faceted filters enabled?

The explanation:

Some ways this can happen is if the you created a LookML dashboard and have it listen_to_filters and then turn the LookML dashboard to UDD, or if you've created the dashboard via the API and accidentally had the faceted filters listen to each other.

The solution:

Either way, simple solution for this is to recreate the filter. Harder solution would be to update the dashboard via API.
