Family Tree improvements

I feel like the main issue with Cats & Dogs is that they don't have their own UI. You can see their traits on the list of people your Sim knows, but what about family trees? What if we want to create many generations of pets? I had an idea - creators of the game should add a family tree button to that list:

And then I had another idea - this button should be added to every person your Sim knows, that way we could easily see who's related to who.

Family trees themselves should be improved as well. I like that you can see your siblings and many generations of people before you and after you, but what about the rest of the family? Personally I find it annoying how you have to click on each Sim to find other relatives, in my opinion the family tree should also show all of your Sims' uncles, aunts, cousins, nieces and nephews and it would be so much easier to see the whole family.

What family trees currently look like:

What they should look like after clicking on any person in the family:

And can we fix genealogy? Sims can be cousins but not even have the aunt or uncle in their personal family tree. And when there's limited ancestors, we should be able to make a create-a-sim portrait. And have the option of having that sim in world or not. And editing relationships.

Like:
1. You have a sim you're making and decide to make her parents too. Cool.
2. But you want her to take after her Grandma who doesn't exist. POP On Over to "Edit-Geneology-Mode"(trademark pending lol). Make Grandma add her traits. Maybe give her some fulfilled lifetime achievements (myb sims 3 era stuff). Add her beaus.
3. Grandma married Grandpa Elroy but dated Louis Marx first, and Mom looks just like him.?
4. We could have a panel for "Past Relationships" sims can be exes. Ex bffs etc, without us having to cheat it all. Or suffer through it.
5. Ooooh and we could add a "Search for Ancestry " sims who are the first in their families can have randomized backstories of where their ppl are from. Sims with ancestors can learn about the lives they lived.
6. And I can FINALLY add relatives. MCC only has parent or siblings, or kids. What about aunts and uncle? Or if you have a relationship with multiple spouses we could have Mom/Dad #x or a difference between bio-parents and raising parents.
