[2022] Why is there no option to change quick trash controls?

I just started playing Terraria a few days ago for the first time, I've avoided it for a long time for no good reason.

To my horror I had been losing items and accidentally deleting them. I assume I accidently hit control all the time on other games, it just doesn't do anything detrimental.

I've searched countless threads to find a solution, but "favorite every item" or "just get gud" aren't solutions. It's mind-blowing that this game is 11 years old and chooses to put the f*cking delete key next to the quick move key, and gives you no access to change this.

I am just here to vent because clearly the devs could give a sh*t about people accidentally throwing items away. Not having an option to change or disable this makes me not want to continue playing at all. I guess that doesn't matter to them because they got my money.
