Feature Suggestion: iPhone display option for classic bezels

I'm not a big fan of the dynamic island, hole-punch front camera, or rounded edge displays for the newer iPhones (letalone any similar smart phone). However, I understand the advantages of the extra screen real estate. That still doesn't improve my opinion much. Considering the screens are now OLED, I would appreciate an options to has solid edges at the top and bottom of the screens to reflect the old style of iPhone display. With this, iOS could still have additional display options that utilize the artificial bezels, such as continuing to display the time and network connections, larger island information, and shortcuts to features and apps. Or, just keep it blank, and work within the limited aspect ratio. I'm not sure how many other people woulf appreciate a similar feature, but I'm going to put the idea out there.
