Stating something needs to be fixed implies that it is broken. If Illwinter thought the current system were broken, don't you think they would have "fixed" it by now?

Not necessarily. Illwinter is a "garage operation" and they've always had a tendency to work more on what they find interesting than on what's broken (which seems a pretty sensible approach for this type of game, really.) So that they haven't "fixed" something can mean that they don't think it's a problem, that they don't think it's important, that they've prioritised other stuff, that the code they'd have to change is particularly ugly and double-plus-un-fun or that they've been distracted with shinier, more rewarding aspects of making the game.
Besides, this is really a UI issue, and Illwinter's attention to those have always been a little haphazard.
