You do realize, don't you, how much software and how many documents such
a change would break?  One of the primary reasons Org users use Org is
that its file format is very long-lived and flexible.  There are even
academic papers written in Org, exported to LaTeX, and a change such as
that would break them, creating needless work for their authors or other
interested parties to fix them up in order to still be exportable.

Please think of other users.
