For what it’s worth, Mage Hand can already activate buttons and levers, it’s just unexplained and unintuitive. If you use the Hand to throw an item at a lever/button, that lever/button will activate.

It’s not just a property of Mage Hand, anyone can throw stuff at levers to activate them, but at least that cantrip can do what players assume it should be able to.
