Not only has nobody suggested this, I have explicitly written here otherwise,

I infer you think that my arguments here are based on something I dreamed up in
5 minutes of tip-tapping at my keyboard. They are not. They are what Boeing and

It's fine if believe you've found a better way. But there's a high bar of
existing practice and experience to overcome with a better way, and a need to
start from a position of understanding that successful existing practice first.
