Default Folders : Lack of info on timeline

Here's an example of the sort of session I'm used to working with: http://duc.avid.com/attachment.php?a...1&d=1585858189

And here's the same session compressed down into (what I could consider) reasonable folders : http://duc.avid.com/attachment.php?a...1&d=1585858189

...which to me, looks more like this, i.e. where the tracks are set to "blocks" and view name is switched off : http://duc.avid.com/attachment.php?a...1&d=1585858189

So for me, there's a distinct lack of information on the folder tracks, they just look like some pretty blocks. A bit like the "Universe" window, which I didn't much like either.

I'm not suggesting I have any solutions, just wondered if anyone else had any thoughts, or if I'm just nit picking. Maybe my preferred screen (first shot) looks messy to some? I can see exactly what's going on where though, and I can't say the same for the folder tracks. Wouldn't it be better if the name of the folder track was somehow visible on the blocks or something? At least you could quickly have an idea of which folder was which without having to keep scanning over to the track name.
