Have you filed a feedback? Seems like the right next step.

The post opens with the following TL;DR:, snipped for brevity:

> It would be great if someone can connect me with the right person inside Apple, or direct them to my feedback request FB17475838 as well as this devlog entry.

Feedbacks often go into a black hole unless either: 1. A bunch of people file effectively the same bug report (unlikely here) 2. An individual Apple employee champions the issue internally 3. Someone makes a fuss on Twitter/X and it starts to go viral

Sounds like the OP is trying to get #2 to happen, which is probably his best bet.

Another trick is to schedule some Apple engineer time during WWDC, and plead your case.
I was going to recommend this. They may have some suggestions of how to improve things with existing metal as well.
Feedback is as effective as creating a change.org petition to some politician to stop doing crimes please. You'll be lucky to get an acknowledgement that something's a real issue after months.
