Optional neck heel for set neck builds

It would be great if Warmoth would offer a neck heel option similar to the shape of the LP Jr double and single cut heels for their necks.  Especially on the Warmoth headstock shape!
 
It's probably not in the cards as they're primarily running as a Fender replacement parts maker.  I don't disagree with the notion though, just the feasibility is probably not there.
 
This could potentially contribute to there being more problems for Warmoth though. You can't 'undo' a set neck. Once you glue it on you are 'stuck' with it. There is no going back. This could then lead to more overall negative feedback on the internet in general which is never a good thing no matter who's fault it is. The fact that someone has not been careful enough and glued their neck on without it being dead straight won't matter in the grand scheme of things. They will still complain. It would also be more difficult to deal with returns of necks if there is an issue which crops up a few weeks after the build. There is nothing to stop someone from gluing on a neck and filling the screw holes but it's not something I would do.

There is at least one thing. Common sense
