Late penalty

Why can you only set a late penalty policy to the entire gradebook, as opposed to individual assignments or at least individual groups, forcing all assignments and type of assignments to have the same late penalty.  I asked a rep via chat and they told me that they setup up Canvas this way because, in general, Universities set late policies for the entire campus and do not allow instructors to override. This is the first time I heard something like that, it makes no sense to me. But even if that was the case, there is no reason for which a homework, a quiz, a project, a take home test, etc will all have to have the same late policy.  So, how can we ask Canvas to look into this and consider allowing more flexibility in assigning late penalties?
