Less Surface Caves

I think the new caves in 1.17 snapshots are great! However, it seems to me like there are a lot more surface caves than before. Whether or not that's actually true, I think there should be less of them.

Not only are there two other features that already accomplish the task (ravines and cracks), the amount of surface caves is taking away from surface generation.

In my opinion, the surface now feels like swiss cheese. I enjoy continuous surface generation, and all the ponds and gashes are there to mix it up a bit, but the number of surface caves is a little overboard.

Consider lowering the frequency of surface caves please.
