It would be such an easy fix, I've done it with my moredeathsurprise mod (MM-19 Misc Mods: https://deichschafblog.de/bienchen/sonstige-mods-misc-mods/)
Sometimes I feel sorry that EA hardly ever improves on existing features.
Just remember the gardening overhaul where we lost 5 levels of gardening quality (reduction to 5 instead of 10). And there still is coding for fruit/vegetable decay in the game but instead of getting that, they deprived us of 5 levels and left gardening to be a very rare thing. Sorry for the off topic.
