Feature suggestion: Remaining Filament

Our extruders know exactly how much filament they have pulled through, and the RF tags have serial numbers. Why not keep track of the exact amount of filament remaining? Not just the rough guess by timing the RFID chip rotations. Have an option to remove any spool from inventory with les than x grams (or length) remaining, and any spool that hasn’t been seen in x number of days if it is taking up too much memory. Sure there are edge cases that will make the number wrong, but 99% of us could use this 99% of the time without issues. It would also drive more users to buy Bambu filament. The current system is way too vague to be very useful.
