End game colapse ideas

I have watched and played the game for a bit, and while I am new I have noticed a few things that could use minor tweaks to make the game flow better, and have people griefing others less.

1: Bleed out option:

While this could be abused to leave matches early, the alternative right now is people trying to jump off hooks and missing skill checks to leave. Plus occasionally a killer will just watch a player bleed out slowly instead of hooking them, if they are the last survivor left. Allow it to count as a sacrifice for the killer.

2: Adrenaline if you're the last survivor left, while dying:

This option, while odd, would allow a player to get up after the second to last survivor dies, their icon turning to a sacrifice icon or a mori. It's more for both sides, as a survivor can grief a killer by crawling to a spot they can't see them and just bleeding out. The player will be up, more visible to the killer, and give them a chance to do something other than bleed out slowly. Also if adrenaline activates due to the hatch being closed just have the act of getting up disable it.

3: Blood warden block one gate and power down unopened gates.

I have noticed how Blood Warden works, and while it can be amusing for the killer it just causes the killer and survivors to stare at each other, if activated when there is only 60 seconds left on the end game collapse. While having Blood Warden deactivate at the last second might be a bit much, to have both sides still engage with each other, maybe a different option would be more active. Like allow Blood Warden to still block the gates, but it only blocks open gates. If a gate has progress on opening it, reset the progress, but don't block the gate behind it. This way it still adds a little bit to it. Though either way I don't have an issue with it personally, it's just an idea I had.

I am sure these might not be popular ideas, but they are thoughts I have had on seeing survivors and killers alike trying to grief each other.
