Why is retract compulsory in Advanced Drill?

Last move is always Retract in Advanced Drill by design. In 2021 retract positioned to clearance plane, if ticked, but in 2023 it always goes to retract plane. So CNC obviously fixed this.

Now many advanced drill operations created by 2021 that go well above retract level to clear chips make an unnecessary Z- plunge to retract plane that I'd rather not have. Sure there are workarounds but it would mean rewriting all the operations. So why not just let us omit retract as last move?
