Hextech Chests Skin Reroll Suggestion

Is there any chance of a rework in the pipeline to where rerolling multiple skins worth X amount of essence locks out the lowest tier (or 2nd lowest, etc.) from showing up in the result? For example, rerolling enough essence to entirely create a 1350 skin would lock out 520 RP skins, enough for a 1820 would lock out 750 RP, and enough for a 3250 RP skin would lock out 975 RP skins? Something to give some incentive to reroll rarer skin shards you dislike without the chance of, say, rerolling 2 1820 RP skins and a 975 RP skin and getting a 520 RP skin for one of the champions the 1820 RP skin was for.

Because currently any skin worth 975 RP + seems almost a waste to reroll, as the essence cost to reroll 3 decent skins is so high and the chance of a decent skin is so meh that rerolling high tier skins is almost always a trap.

I think Riot deliberately prevents ways for you to rig the RNG so they don't hemorrhage money by having skin rerolling be more lucrative than flat out buying the skins.

Hextech is a VERY touchy area for Riot's bottom line, especially when it comes to OE and skin shards, so they're not going to make it easier for you to get higher value things for free.

Then they should remove cheap skins having the possibility to give expensive skins, just to make it fair.
