The addition of Netherite Upgrade might be one of the best ideas in recent history. I really would like, if you went further with it, giving different structures different armor upgrades. This could open the door for even more customization in the late game, without sacrificing tool stats. In the Ocean Monument there could be a Turtle Upgrade to craft the Turtle Armor with turtle shells. In the End City there could be an End Upgrade to craft the Elytra-Armor with Phantom Membrans (finally giving them some use).
This could also open the door to different choices the player can make (similar to the mid game choices recently added with copper) with giving the different armor sets different pros and cons. Like with the Diamond Set beeing the standard set without pros and cons, Netherite reciving less knockback (and maybe less damage from fire), but maybe you slowly sink in water, Turtle with the ability for waterbreathing and maybe night vision or swift swim when in water, but arrows hurt you more, End with the ability to use the Elytra but you take more damage in general. (maybe different based on preference an balancing.)
This could really ad to the game, not only beeing able to chose from different top tier weapons, but also different top tier armors.
