Dealing with arachnophobia - Discussion

I've been trying to play for a long time, but spider mobs keep me from doing it. Their appearance and sounds makes me freeze and gives me nausea.

So, instead of removing spiders altogether, interfering with other players experiences, i've thought of some stuff that could be made:

Adding an arachnophobia mode, changing spiders and cave spiders for another mob or animal with the "same value" (drops, behavior, damage, etc.), where it affects only the player who has it activated. That way, if you're playing on a server, other players will continue to see them as usual;
Add a mob spawn "disabler", where you can flag which mobs you want to spawn and which ones you don't, without having to add cheats or command blocks, while creating a new world, or, with an already created one;
Tagging players with a no spider filter, where it despawns or kills them when a tagged player gets to a specific number of blocks of distance to the mobs.

What you guys think? If you have more ideas, let's share them.
