Why doesn't FCPX offer more anamorphic override settings than just 2X in the metadata inspector/browser?

The lack of anamorphic override options beyond 2x is baffling to me with so many scope variations in use on various productions. Why can't we enter a value? I have worked on projects that use 1.33, 1.5, 1.8 and 2x over the past couple of years. Yeah I know in the timeline desqeezing is easy enough but in the browser it makes it annoying to have to cull footage, select and organize takes when your looking footage you can't really preview in it's intended aspect ratio. For short form stuff I can deal with it but for longer form projects this is one of a few reasons that I'm finding Resolve much easier to work with.
