Is there any way to modify the latency compensation to be placed after “each” plug-in?

If I’m not mistaken, Ableton Live’s current latency compensation mechanism applies after "all" the plug-ins. This causes plug-ins like LFOtool and ShaperBox to receive an uncompensated signal, making them trigger too early. As a result, users often have to rely on using sidechain MIDI Trigger as a workaround.
Initially, only FL Studio handled this correctly, but now even Logic Pro has addressed this issue. Ableton Live is already at version 12.1.10 — when can we expect this problem to be fixed?

Might be a huge selling point of Live 13

Hope so, I’ve been waiting since 9 to 12😭
But I feel like people don’t really know or care about this issue — there’s very little discussion about it.
