Portal Player Minimums (REDSEC Specific)

I'm not sure where else to post this other than here, but I would really like for player minimums to be eliminated so that I can play REDSEC with a handful of friends just for fun. We used to do this in BO4 Blackout, a game that is now 7 years old, and it was purely for fun. Half of the friends I play with are dads and non-gamers, but we would carve out times on Friday nights or over Holidays to just have fun in a big map playing Battle Royale with just like 10 of us, and we don't want or need XP gains at all. I'd really like to see the devs remove minimums and give us full customization of teams, player counts, even adding bots would be great, and if it's below 50 players, then remove XP and progression altogether, because my friends and I don't even care about that. Whats the point of a custom game creator if there are steep limitation on it like this? Thanks for taking the time to read.
