Removing gold % with diplomancy ?

Would it be possible to remove the feature that forces you to spend 20-30% of your gold in order to make dipo deals? I am finding it very annoying to spend 100k-200k for simple things such as trade agreements or offering 1 million$ for sapartary status for a 1 pronvince nation that is at war with 5 other nations and losing decisively.

Here's a tip. When making diplomatic proposals with money involved choose demand, reach the desired sum, then change demand with offer.

You can even combine both "demand" and "offer" amounts to get any multiple of the difference...

Let's say the "offer" is 16,000 and the "demand" is 3000. You can "offer" 16k, switch to demand, subtract 3k 5x, and then you have an offer/demand of just 1k.

That sounds convoluted but it is useful sometimes.

The problem is that the AI knows how much gold you have, and unless I am mistaken they base their demands (and acceptance) on the size of your coffers.

It's not so much the issue of not being able to actually type in the sum manually (what a good feature to remove...), it's the AI's expectations based on your bank account.
