minecraft realms render/ simulation distance

please increase the distance in which the world is rendered/ simulated in realms. My computer can render so much further but when i play on realms with my friends on xbox it is capped. This is really frustrating as it means that when im flying using an elytra i keep crashing into chunk borders or just stopping and falling out of the sky causing me to die. i don't understand why my computer gets limited because im playing on a realm. if my computer can render further it should do.

    they limit this so their servers run cheaper. The rendering and simulating distance is generated at the server.

    For me this is close to a show stopper. Got my air-build ready with lights and all but to have it working i have to stay close to my clock. No way to observe it from a distance now. The build isn't that huge 300x25 blocks (l x w).

    Also the ammount of mobs spawning in my neck because of this render and simulation distance is ridiculous. I started this server because of all children in my family to play together. The young ones now don't play because when they forget a torch they get jumped constantly.

    Is it possible to put more load on the client side for this to happen? Alternatively, can it be possible to toggle this for each player in the realm (whether it is for performance reasons or personal preference)
