Wait Random Time

In a workflow we are currently able to add a wait for a specific time. Please add a random time between Min and Max mintues. ie. Wait between 5 and 10 mintes.
This is key for many situations but here is a good example. I want to Call Connect (bridge) salespeople to leads that came in during the night when nobody was around to answer their call. I setup this workflow to only run during working hours. So at 9am without this functionality all the calls will happen at once overloading the salesperson.

Wanted to understand why drip action is not working for these use cases ? The goal is to send staggered contacts /items, which can be achieved with drip action. Moroever a random wait will bring in non deterministic behaviour. For ex- if 100 contacts are waiting at a random wait which allows time delay of 1-10 minutes, will not have even split of 10 contacts every 1 minute, it can also be 90 contacts in first minute and then rest 10 in the remaining 9 minutes.

for my use case, we want to do a follow up once per day or once per week but at different random times of the day. Some in the morning, some afternoon, some evening. Currently I have to do a split between these 3 time sets 9-12, 12-3, 3-6, instead of just a time randomizer workflow action.
E.G. Pick a random time between X and Y or between 1 min and 6 hours, etc

This would be super helpful as we send SMS reminderd about coaching events each week. Random wait would mean less chance of Twillio or whatsapp having a tizzy fit and blocking the account as they think its spam (which happened to me this week).
I believe a random time delay would fix this.

wait and drip actions with random time would be huge

This seems exceptionally easy for HighLevel team to set up and is super necessary. The current solutions to do this are way too difficult
