'Sliders' That are missing

Hey all! I really love the new CAS in sims 4- in fact, it's one of the only things I like better than sims 3... There are a few issues with it of course, in that there are some 'sliders' that should be there but aren't.
The biggest one for me is forehead. We didn't have this in sims 3 either... it isn't possible to directly alter the forehead size. You can move the eyes and jaw up to minimize the forehead, but we should be able to directly alter the forehead too!
The nose sliders seem to be lacking in one crucial area- it is hard/impossible to define the nose. Most noses look 'middle defined' from what we could do in sims 3. You can make them undefined with a bit of work, but you really can't define the nose too easily. This one almost needs an actual slider, as I'm not sure how you could really alter this directly on the sim.
Chin buldge! All the chins, even on fat sims (like I saw in another thread) are super thin. Even for people that aren't overweight, you could very likely have a bit of chin buldge.
This one isn't so necessary, but I'd love to see a chin cleft 'slider'.
I tried to recreate the most popular sim of mind on MTS. You can see how overall, his features are quite similar. His nose is definitely off though. Sure part of it is something I cuold tweak, but the nose definition definitely isn't the same.
Not to mention the skin color! Once you get past light skins, I think the color choices for skin are horrible. They seem off to me, especially the black skintones. There isn't really a 'tan' that is quite as dark as on the original Preston.
What 'sliders' do you think are missing?

My Mood:
I think these specifics are mostly noted and important to those of us that make sims a lot, as I do. For the vast majority, I imagine the 'sliders' we have now is more than sufficient.
Yes, exactly my point! There was one hair in particular in sims 3 that I loved, but never used because it landed so high on the forehead.
Great choice, choosing my thread to reply to in your thirty post quest
