Rat Behaviour

After seeing the reasoning behind Wake Up getting nerfed from the PTB to Live, I had a thought about how to systemically tackle the problem. Here's my idea that briefly came to mind and isn't all that well thought out:

Make it so survivors have to progress an objective, or their location will be revealed to the killer via KI.

So a survivor must be working on generators, unhooking or healing a teammate, in chase with the killer, ect, semi-regularly for KI to not reveal them.

I'm not going to do the work to identify how long would have to pass for KI to activate, or for how long survivors would have to spend progressing objectives to avoid getting revealed. But having a system in-place to deal with survivors who just let everyone die, and go for hatch, is better than making perks that nobody bothers to run, due to how unimpactful they are.
