Heatsinks and DHS together at last!

I think that both heat sinks and DHS should both be able to be used. After you buy the upgrade of course.
What made me think of this was that I have a mech that is a ton underweight with the weapon grouping I want to use. However I would like to pack on an extra heat sink or 2, but I cant because of the limited space. All that is left is just groups of 1 or 2 crit slots, where a DHS wouldn't fit.
I know I can max out armor or ammo, but I rather put it towards heat. Caustic Valley and all....

take your torso(s) XL eng with a PPC and AMS, 5 crit slots left, 1DHS, now if I have an extra ton left on max weight, I would like to be able to put a normal HS in that slot, but cant.
I'm not saying it would work for everyone or on every mech. But it would be nice to have the option to make that choice.

... but with all the things the dev's need to work on, this will probably never happen. It just isn't going to be a popular enough demand.

You don't see how every mech in the game having drastically increased heat dissipation would cause problems? Currently you trade 1 ton for 1 crit slot. The advantage comes with a disadvantage. If you could mix both, every single mech in the game would use doubles in their engines even if they didn't have the crits to use them elsewhere. You'd get all the advantages with none of the disadvantages.

being able to mix SHS and DHS would lead to every mech being able to be ****** OP buildable. you want to do that might as well just scrap hardpoints and allow free building so we can put 100 armor on an arm with 5 LL's on it while the rest of the mech doesnt matter.
So NO

^this. Mixing them isn't a good idea from my point of view.
