STATS for the Camel (Feedback/Suggestion)

Camels are great.
So i did spend some time riding the camel and i noticed something.

• depending on the biom/terrain i could have used a further or slightly higher dash or a better dash recovery
• as soon as i find one camel i don't need more of them (no use in breeding or search more)

My suggestion would be to take a similar approach as to the horse stats, but with stats useful to the camel.

• 3 stats (Dash Distance / Dash Recovery / Step Height+Dash Height)

Dash Distance and Recovery are self-explanatory, but to explain why Step and Dash height are bundled:

• Step height of the camel is currently 1,5 blocks, same for the dash height, that's why i pack them together 
• Dash height on its own would be worse than the other 2 stats.

Stat distribution:

• [Middle / Middle / Middle] This would be a balanced camel
• [Max / Middle / Min] Those are specialiced camels (6 possible stat combination)
• Stat distribution would be random/not dependent on the parents

An Example:
[Dash Distance / Dash Recovery / Dash+Step Height]
Let's take the current Camel Stats as the

"Balanced"
[10 Blocks / 3 Sec / 1,5 Blocks]

"Max Dash Distance"
[12,5 Blocks / 3 Sec / 1 Block] or [12,5 Blocks / 4 Sec / 1,5 Blocks]

"Max Dash Recovery"
 [10 Blocks / 2 Sec / 1 Block] or [ 7,5 Blocks / 2 Sec / 1,5 Blocks]

"Max Dash+Step Height"
 [10 Blocks / 4 Sec / 2 Block] or [ 7,5 Blocks / 3 Sec / 2 Blocks]

Conclusion:

• "different" camels
• purpose to breeding/finding more camels
• choice for different needs/playstyles/situations

  Dash length should be based on terrain, not biome. For example, polished, and even more slippery surfaces are more difficult to push off, the same goes for sticky surfaces.

  I like this idea. But a couple of questions. Why isn't something along these lines already the case, and how can I appreciate the Camels better?
  
  I want to learn more about them, and what they bring to the table. I like their animations; they are quite lovely and feel happy. I like their goofy leap, as it is different than horses, while being an interesting feature. I like that they spawn in the desert. Its cool having more mobs from different areas of the world to find and explore alongside.
  
  I want to love the multiplayer aspect having two seats, but I'm concerned about comparing them to horses or donkeys with speed. I don't need a faster camel; I just like breeding donkeys and am sad that camels don't seem to be able to change stats in the same way. Any thoughts or ideas?
