In large meetings (250 people) people hit "mute all" and consistently silence the speaker, disrupting the meeting.

Please figure out a solution to prevent such disruptions in large meetings.

Use Live Events - anyone not a presenter can't mute anyone else or un-mute themselves, by default.
Alternatively, make sure only presenters are designated as such in the meeting options in a Teams meeting

Is it possible to have option to "mute all attendees" in addition to "mute all"? Also, any settings that can disable attendees from unmuting themselves?

You can solve this by designating presenters and attendees prior to the meeting, or use the "Make everyone an attendee" function during the meeting.

I want all the things Eyad commented on. The meeting options mentioned by Karan are very limited.
Another problem I see is that when we use the Mute All feature, folks on the phone can't unmute themselves easily and end up having to hang up and call back -

Ideally meeting organizer can decide which permissions meeting attendees have access to. Where they can enable/disable features as needed. So the meeting organizer can set the meeting to be all attendees start as muted (and unable to unmute) where the option to unmute can be re-enabled during the QA session or parts of the meeting.
Additionally meeting organizer (and maybe can assign meeting admins?) can unmute individual attendees (for example to unmute a presenter that's not the organizer).
