Swiping to clear notifications as they come in (Sense)

On fitbitOS4 (Ionic, Versa, Versa2) I was able to swipe right to clear new notifications as they came in. On Sense (and probably on Versa3) when a notification comes in, I first have to tap on it to expand it and then click Clear.
This is needed because:
Be the same as it was in the older watches (FitbitOS4) . It might also be good to swipe right to clear from the list (on screen after swipe down)
I'd use this: Daily

I just realized now, you have to swipe to LEFT on notification to clear.

Please add this feature to the charge 5. It’s really annoying trying to check the time really quick while I’m in a fast paced environment and I have to tap to expand and clear a notification from 3 minutes ago.

It’d be way easier to just swipe the notification summary away so I can see the time instead of having to stop what I’m doing to expand and clear.
