Elytra Damage from hitting walls

So it’s extremely annoying when you are flying with your elytra with full enchanted netherite, hit a wall and instantly die. It’s especially annoying when you run into a wall in a chunk that had not fully loaded so you have no way of knowing a wall is present. The fact that hitting a wall with an elytra can result in an instant death often deters players from using it for travel out of fear of hitting a wall and loosing all their stuff. I think that either, the damage taken should be reduced, slamming into walls in unloaded chunks should not do damage, or an enchantment for elytras should be added that removes/lessens the damage taken for hitting walls.
