We DID fight to get these reactions you are arguing against in.
They used to be automated toggles and most of us on this forum hated how the whole thing worked, because the "annoying interruption" is precisely what gives the player agency and control over what's going on, so it's not annoying at all in our eyes.

The game improved SIGNIFICANTLY in the moment this way to handle reaction was finally introduced.

If anything, I'd love to see "ready actions" sneak their way into the game, too. But realistically this is two years and half past its original release; I doubt it will see any more additions and changes past some basic bug fixing.

Party control in Baldur's Gate 3 is a complete mess that begs to be addressed. SAY NO TO THE TOILET CHAIN
