Temperature sensor

When you have multiple sensors in a zone, Nest lets you choose which sensor should be considered primary by time of day. For instance, in the Morning you can have one sensor be “on” and then evening can have another sensor be “on” for purposes of heating (or cooling) that zone. My problem is that the sensor schedules seem to be limited to pre-set time blocks. Nest considers “Morning” to be 7am to 11am and I can’t find a way to change that time block. Is there a way to do so? If not, this should absolutely be a functionality that’s added. Note I’m NOT talking about the schedules for temperature. I’m talking about the schedule for which sensor is active and when. I’d like to have more customization as to when a sensor takes over as primary since Nest’s pre-set time blocks for sensor schedules do not align with our family’s schedule. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I've submitted requests for this for a long while, they seem to be ignoring the requests.
