Indeed. Or maybe they can replace the even more useless "Average/Instant" toggle button with a "Local/Roadtrip" toggle button. "Local" mode would maintain the current 5/15/30 scale, while "Roadtrip" would adjust it to the aforementioned 50/100/200 scale.
50 miles is almost one round trip from work if I don't make any detours--so that's kind of the "local" for me
