When you are making your redstone suggestions, please note that Java and Bedrock will not have the exact same the same redstone systems - this would require redoing redstone system completely on one platform or the other. The two systems are functionally different and are going to stay that way. Please be sure to tag your suggestions with (Java) or (Bedrock).

The Redstone AmPolar!

Flying machine timing getting out of hand? you and your friend want to try to build the internet on your private server? hate the fact that you have to rely on glitches to do basic functions we should have out of the box? Introducing: The Redstone AmPolar!

The Redstone AmPolar is a 1x1 flat block(with a redstone triangle to indicate direction and indicates power?) that IMMEDIATELY amplifies a unidirectional signal. The current "instant repeaters" are LARGE, LOUD and BULKY!(They ALSO rely on BUD mechanics) and certainly take away the functionality and aesthetic of more advanced redstone builds and giving redstone the ability to SILENTLY extend in a COMPACT manor, without altering the current repeater and instead add a separate block that has no adjustments, as an AMP, THE REDSTONE AMPOLAR!

Since repeaters weren't necessary as we could just repeat signals by inverting redstone torches(and inverting even more for longer delays) and double spacing redstone wire would prevent shorts so in all reality adding the repeater simply made the redstone builds more compact and aesthetically pleasing! The AmPolar would add the EXACT same amount of oomph back into redstone, the exact aim we all wish to achieve here.

I went to https://feedback.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/articles/360005029872-Previously-Considered-Feedback and did a quick CTRL+F and found nothing for "AmPolar" previously suggested, I hope I have something neat here!

Cheers ♥

    I read your post, but i really disagree with most of it.

    "The current "instant repeaters" are LARGE, LOUD and BULKY!(They ALSO rely on BUD mechanics)"
    Thats wrong. that is so wrong.
    Here are two "intant repeaters" https://streamable.com/dayuz
    The one on the left is small, and doesnt rely on any kind of bud/glitched mechanics

    The one on the right is completly silent, small and in my opionion nice to look at.

    "Since repeaters weren't necessary as we could just repeat signals by inverting redstone torches"
    While adding the repeater, mojang made the decision, they activly made the decision, it should atleast take 2 gameticks to amplify the signal. They could easily added a zeroth stage, at wich the signal is amplified instandly, but for a lot of reasons they decided against it back then. What makes you think theire opinion changed.

    Also that comparison is really far fetched. Especially since you neglected so many components of the repeater
    for example having the ability of holding a signal, if another repeater faced into its side

    Aswell as being configurable, a repeater has a changable delay, stacking torches always has the same.
