[2023] Can we PLEASE get a warning that switching public map will reset our story progress?

On the story of 'The Battle for Lion's Arch'.

Need to complete a certain number of events/kill enemies, and the progress bar goes up.

I get about 4/5th of the way through, and get the popup the map is unpopulated and asks if I wish to move to a new instance. I do.

Goodbye story progress! Now I have to do that all over again.

Now I know some of you are going to say "so what?" or "why switch then?"

This is something that should:

1. Either be warned about
2. Not reset the progress

And the events are group-specific. If I didn't switch, I would have struggled and clearly the instance had emptied out.

Not everybody has time to do the same mission several times. I wanted to make progress on the mission between work projects and wrap up 'Battle for Lion's Arch' chapter today. Turns out I can't due to flawed game design.
