If we could feed bats with fruits not to tame them but share their abilities with you. For example, feeding them gives you the ability to see hostile mobs through walls for a brief moment in 1 chunk radius (could be higher), similar effect to spectral arrows or when you rung a bell during a raid. This represents the bat's echolocation ability to find their way through the caves, this could help the player find more nearby caves and maybe structures like dungeons, strongholds, trial chambers, etc. Since they spawn in spacey caves, it's rare to come across thus balancing the use of it. And for good measures, the player can only feed them 3-4 times until the next day in-game. And additionally, bats in Minecraft don't go outside the caves naturally, so their only source of food is the glow berries. So it makes sense that they only eat glow berries and coincidentally they make hostile mobs glow around you and maybe chests too since they count as entities.
And also make their AI a bit smarter since they sometimes fly into flowing lavas.
