I understan you.
But sadly DND 5e isnt really balanced .
The real problem with ranger that they where the worst.
Druids have some better options but only (expansion) books.
Ranger Beast master was medicore but like 10 times better than normal ranger after tasha's cauldron.
IT suppose to work like this *ish* i can say that the ranger choice of animal companions are much more better then this.
And actual the animal companion sould use the bonus action of the ranger when he wants to attack or do something.
IT isnt far away from this.
But i like Larians version better.
