Sorry if the tone if this is harsh but tbh I'm like... really tired of the idea that the companions' personality should be adjusted to suit the player. It gets to a point where it strips the characters of their personalities. This reaction from Astarion has been in the datamined files for a long time, it just took Larian time to implement it in the game.
I agree, it is a danger of watering out their personality with every change. But OP made it clear it was more of a mod request, not a petition for a change. I think mod requests are a great way to get to play your dream story.
