I see your point I really do BUT this feature has never really caused me a problem and I own lots of DJI drones.
I kind of like the fact that DJI will not help anyone but me if questions about my drone arise. DJI has always maintained contact...
I walked a path much tighter than what you are describing yesterday with no view of the sky at all and places where I had to duck under branches. My Mini 4 Pro managed really well, better than I would have flown it.
