Exactly, tater.

But making it a simple increase will cause a dramatic loss in FPS for a number of users, so there is no simple "Change value to..."

But implementing an option to do that, making precautions people cannot find a hole by that to deactivate clouds on servers with clouds enforced and stuff like that, means a lot of work and even positioning the button in some options screen would cost time that is lost on SoW.
