Generator engine stall sound

so as most of you know they took away the stall sound and i get it, it was obnoxious and loud and occurred too frequently but despite that i thought it was a cool feature and would like to see it return but what if they made it only happen when the gen reached 25%/50%/75% of its progression and the further along the gen is the higher the pitch of the stall sound will be that way both survivor and killer will get feedback on a gens progression without actually looking at it

so if your the killer and you are chasing someone nearby, you hear the highest pitch stall sound, you will know the gen just hit 75% and that the gen will be completed in 20 seconds or less and needs to be stopped or if you are a survivor and you run towards a gen and you hear the stall sound you can then judge if you should help finish it or go pressure a different one.

also lets not forget how the gears inside the gen would spin when the stall sound played, i just think that was a cool feature and made the gens feel more like a real generators.
