New Score Event Idea, plus Slight Change to 'Generator Completion' and Dark Sense

Dwight is my preferred Survivor, and I always take the Leader perk with me. Nothing like a little extra 9%, to speed the game up 'just a little bit'.
But what I dislike is that if one to three of the other Survivors are working on the other generator, with no room for me, I don't get rewarded for it, and I sure as hell don't get Dark Sense triggered for it.

So I propose an idea;
If standing within 8 meters of a generator, or any co-op action (such as healing, untrapping, hook rescues, etc), points will be given to the most relevant category, plus Survival. This will give points for an action called 'Lookout', where the Survivor who stands near the action will more than likely be looking around for the Killer to watch the working Survivors' backs. Gaining Lookout for generators will give points to Objective and Survival, gaining Lookout for healing actions will give points for Altruism and Survival.
This will also allow Survivors to have more opportunities to gain points for the Survival category. There are only four Survival category actions that are not locked behind a very specific Killer, those being wiggling off the Killer's shoulder, self-healing, successfully escaping the hook on your own, and getting out of the Trial alive.
Additionally, Dark Sense should proc if a Survivor is standing within 8 meters of a completed generator. I generally run Dark Sense with Leader and if there's two Survivors working on a generator with only two spaces, it's better to give 'em that total 18% instead of 9% with me.
That being said, since I'm aiding the Survivors in completing the generator, and typically working as a lookout myself, Dark Sense should proc for me and reveal the Killer if a generator is completed within 8 meters.
The reason I say '8 meters' is because all of the range-based buff perks for Survivors (Vigil, Leader, Prove Thyself and Streetwise) have an 8 meters range. It only makes sense that being within 8 meters of a completed generator would proc Dark Sense for a Survivor that's nearby, especially if it's a supportive Leader.
It also makes sense that if Bitter Murmur reveals Survivors within 16 meters of a generator, then Dark Sense should proc for Survivors within 8 meters of a completed generator.
