The pattern areas you highlighted are not totally redundant- each pattern can have a unique name (F6) that is displayed at the top of the screen. I would not want to give up this feature.
Or maybe a subscreen that replaces the part with the faders and displays 1.1, 1.2 and so on when you press a button.
There’s already that kind of thinking in the machine, I guess in liveloops? where you can press a button and display the incoming waveform signal for example.
It probably can be done but probably won’t be done.
I’d like to have it work as a countdown too when a count-in is set before recording. I’ve never liked how the count-in is displayed on the screen since the beginning.
