FYI You already can make it dynamic by adding envelope follower, Also I've not needed to use a linear phase EQ in 15 years of professional production.

I agree. Making the existing assets better is a much better idea than adding a new device most people already have has a 3rd party plugin. This is something the FL Studio team should REALLY focus on instead of adding new devices all the time. They should just modernize all the stock devices they haven’t updated since 2012 and before
