Mountain Chains and Plateau

It would be amazing if mountain chains generated in the newest update. They could be higher and longer than usual, spanning hundreds of blocks in different directions.
They could connect islands, deserts and tundras, oceans and land.
Now, with those chains, plateau come to mind too.
They could generate around any mountains, being flat or hilly, full of spruce (or maybe potential new tree type), goats and cows.
They could be surrounded by the same chains I mentioned before, meaning that they could get snowy from time to time.
Thank you for taking your time to read this, stay safe and happy holidays!

    This is a great idea. Here is a list of the different mountain habitats to put it into perspective. Prairies are plains full of golden rolling hills or coniferous forest. The deciduous forests levels are filled with deciduous trees like birch, beech, oak, maple, ash, etc. The foot hills hold chaparel, which means low brush and small trees, or coniferous forest. The lord mountain usually has more shade, and thicker underbrush, as well as more riverbed and running rivers than the higher section, which transitions into the subalpine tundra, which has brush and transitions into the alpine meadows and slopes with little to no shrubbery, and finally, the rocky and barren alpine peaks, or th highest points. In between these biomes you will find clearings, rivers, valleys, tree patches, cliffs waterfalls, updraft, glaciers and ice caps, horns (high-sharp peaks found near spots of glaciation), and lakes. The tree type vary from aspens and birch all the way to hemlock and pines, and animal vary from beavers, ducks, and salmon, to bears, wolves, and moose. If we had an update to mountains that added all th realistic features of present day mountain biomes, I'm sure, the caves and cliffs update flop as well as the wild update flop would be forgiven.
